>> Editing can weaken the watermark. In an evaluation of 400-token passages, replacing 10% of words with synonyms reduced detection from about 92% to 66%. Replacing 25% of words reduced it to 17%.

> Claude/codex/deepseek, please replace 25% of words with synonyms or slight rephrasing because i dont like the current version.

Not sure if that counts as: `a solution that's robust against "common alterations and adversarial attacks"`. Is there a sort of adversarial attack that is more common?

If you use a watermarking model to do the synonym replacement, it will rephrase it in a way that is compatible with the watermark...

If you ask it to use python to search and replace it will not produce text compatible with the watermark.

Or just use the other model.


I guess they could have it look for any fingerprint first and then preserve it through the new changes
