Agents don't cause attacks. People running agents do.

The people who ran the agents were negligent at best but I have an alternate theory.

If they knew the technology could go sideways and hack things then they effectively executed those hacks intentionally.

If not they are only negligently ignorant which is not generally a crime in this context.

DST doesn't do what it's supposed to do, and it kills people. It's weird to celebrate that.

It's a regulation forced on them by the EU's AI Act, which neither companies nor users want.

The target audience for this particular rule of the AI Act isn't the producers or users of AI. It is the consumers of content that might be AI generated.

And frankly, letting people know if they see AI content or not is a fair thing to ask.

And honestly, "not measuring how much a human contributed" is IMHO a massive flaw in general

Fun fact: The EU AI Act considers this. It makes a difference between "AI generated" and "AI modified".

But it's hard to put this into the type of watermarking they are using. Because if you generate a text and then change a few things here and there what you are doing is degrading the watermark. But since the watermark is probabilistic, it's hard to tell if it was a weak watermark from the start or if it was degraded.
