Good question! Why are you paying for some tool that has always been beholden to some faraway master's opaque agenda?

We live in a world where outcomes are often more important than process

Why were you doing that before watermarking?

Same answer.

I don't know, why are you? Who's to say Anthropic wasn't already modifying output in some way for optimization or some other reason? These models are incredibly opaque.

Because the tool is made by a corporation that is subject to regulation by a government, and that government has decided it’s in the best interests of society that the tool be limited in this way.

I assure you, this is one of the mildest things they do after training before the model reaches you.
