Helping people understand the origin of AI-generated content through Content Credentials, SynthID, and an early public verification tool.

Advancing content provenance for a safer, more transparent AI ecosystem

TL;DR

  • OpenAI is strengthening content provenance through C2PA conformance and SynthID watermarking.
  • C2PA provides metadata about content origin and creation, while SynthID embeds invisible watermarks.
  • These two systems complement each other to make provenance signals more resilient.
  • A public verification tool is previewed to help users detect AI-generated images from OpenAI.
  • OpenAI aims to support cross-industry efforts for broader verification in the future.
