Google today said it is making its SynthID Detector available to everyone for identifying content created using AI.
SynthID Detector first rolled out to members of the media last year, and it is now available worldwide in English. SynthID Detector is a website that lets users upload a photo, video, or audio file to determine whether it has a SynthID watermark that identifies it as AI-generated. Google’s tool cannot distinguish between AI-created and AI-edited media, and it requires signing in to use.
SynthID embeds digital watermarks into content created by AI. The watermarks are not visible to humans but can be detected with Google’s website. SynthID Detector can identify media generated using AI from Google, OpenAI, Nvidia, and Kakao. Apple also plans to support SynthID later this year.
Google says its website is not a general AI detector and can only detect media that uses the SynthID technology. SynthID checks are already integrated into Search, Gemini, and Chrome for users who want an alternative to SynthID Detector.Tag: Google
