过去三年里，破折号一直是识别 AI 写作的常见特征。现在，AI 初创公司希望员工自我披露。
For the past three years, the em dash has been a popular tell for identifying AI writing. Now, AI startups want their employees to self-disclose.
周一，AI 销售和营销初创公司 Clay 的联合创始人 Varun Anand 在 X 平台上分享了公司最近推出的 AI 写作政策。
On Monday, Varun Anand, the cofounder of AI sales and marketing startup Clay, shared his company's recently rolled-out AI writing policy in an X post.
这些指南上个月已在 LinkedIn 上分享，并未禁止员工使用聊天机器人进行头脑风暴和起草，但要求他们对与同事分享的所有内容负责。
The guidelines, which were shared on LinkedIn last month, do not ban employees from using chatbots to brainstorm and draft their writing, but ask them to take responsibility for everything they share with colleagues.
文件写道：“在分享之前，你有责任确保整份文件代表你自己的想法。如果审阅者问‘你这句话是什么意思？’，用‘哦抱歉，那是 AI 写的，忽略它’来回复是不可接受的。”
"It is your responsibility to make sure that the entire document is representative of your own thoughts before you share it," the document read. "If a reviewer asks, 'What did you mean by this line?', it's not acceptable to reply with 'Oh sorry, AI wrote that, just ignore it.'"
Anand 写道，该政策始于 Clay 的工程团队，随后推广至全公司。
Anand wrote that the policy began with Clay’s engineering team before spreading companywide.
政策认为，写作本身就是一种思考形式，输入简短提示词后发送一份冗长的 AI 生成文档，会将理解文档的工作强加给阅读者。
It argues that writing is itself a form of thinking and that sending a long AI-generated document after typing a short prompt offloads the work of making sense of it onto those who have to read it.
在 Anand 的帖子发布后，其他科技领袖也回复了他们自己要求员工标记 AI 写作的做法。
Following Anand's post, other tech leaders responded with their own versions of how employees are being asked to flag AI writing.
Figma CEO Dylan Field 在 X 帖子中写道，他们公司采取了一种直接的方法。
Figma CEO Dylan Field wrote in an X post that his company has a straightforward approach.
这家设计软件公司的政策要求在写作过程中使用 AI 的员工在文档顶部添加“written with AI”（由 AI 协助撰写）。
The design software company’s policy requires workers who use AI in their writing process to add “written with AI” at the top.
AI 购物初创公司 Dupe.com 的创始人 Bobby Ghoshal 写道，公司政策要求员工粘贴 AI 撰写的文案时添加一个牛排表情符号。
Bobby Ghoshal, the founder of AI shopping startup Dupe.com, wrote that the company’s policy is to add a steak emoji when workers paste AI-written copy.
他在周一的 X 帖子中写道，该符号旨在表明员工正在充当机器生成文字的“肉身代理”。
The symbol is meant to show that the employee is acting as a “meat proxy” for machine-generated words, he wrote in his post on X on Monday.
“Varun 触及了目前每家公司内部都存在的敏感神经，”Ghoshal 说道，指的是 Anand 的帖子。
“Varun is touching on a live wire inside every company right now,” Ghoshal said, referring to Anand's post.
在一条回复中，AI 研究实验室 Exa 的一名员工表示，公司禁止 AI 写作。"不得发布任何由 AI 撰写的外部沟通内容（推文/领英帖子/以及更多），所有内容必须手写，" Ishan Goswami 写道。"如果你不愿花时间去写，凭什么指望别人花时间去读。" 这些公司正在回应一种在职场中日益普遍的抱怨：AI 让生成文本变得轻而易举，但员工却花费更多时间去解读这些文本。
In a reply, an employee of AI research lab Exa said that AI writing at the company is banned. "No external comms (tweets/linkedIn post/and more) can be AI written, and everything needs to be hand written," Ishan Goswami wrote. "If you don't take the time to write it, why should anyone take the time to read it." The companies are responding to a complaint that is becoming increasingly common in workplaces: AI is making it effortless to produce text, but employees are spending more time deciphering it.
虽然 Clay 的 AI 政策引发了关于公司内部如何标识 AI 写作的讨论，但更广泛的披露 AI 生成内容的努力在今夏早些时候就已开始。8 月，Anthropic 开始在其新款 Claude 模型生成的文本中嵌入一种难以察觉的水印，以响应欧盟《人工智能法案》的透明度准则。该 AI 实验室表示，该水印不会改变文本的含义或可读性，但会随文本的复制粘贴而传递，且"可能在部分编辑后依然保留"。
While the Clay AI policy prompted a conversation about how AI writing is being flagged within companies, broader efforts to disclose AI-generated content began earlier this summer. In August, Anthropic began embedding an imperceptible watermark in text generated by its new Claude models, afterg on to the EU AI Act’s transparency code. The watermark doesn't change the text's meaning or readability, but it travels with the text when copied and pasted and "may persist through some editing," the AI lab said.
AI 公司此前已为风险更直观的媒体建立了 AI 披露机制。Google 的 SynthID 可在 AI 生成的图像、视频、音频和文本中嵌入隐形水印。OpenAI 为 DALL-E 3、ImageGen 和 Sora 生成的图像添加了内容凭证，并从今年开始为其工具生成的受支持图像和音频添加 SynthID 水印。
AI companies had already established AI disclosures for more visibly risky media. Google’s SynthID can embed invisible watermarks in AI-generated images, video, audio, and text. OpenAI has added Content Credentials to images from DALL-E 3, ImageGen, and Sora, and this year began adding SynthID watermarks to supported images and audio generated through its tools.
