I can imagine some kind of public/private key encrypted watermark system to ensure the veracity / provenance of media created via LLMs and their associated user accounts.

There's many reasons why people are concerned about AI's training data becoming AI generated. The usual one is that the training will diverge, but this is another good one.

I think there should be an input filter that if it sees a watermark refuses to use that input and continues with the next input

Camera makers are all working on adding cryptographic signatures to captured images to prove their provenance. The current standard embeds this in metadata, but if they start watermarking the images themselves then skipping watermarked images during training would quickly become an issue
