The premise
Watermarking helps content provenance but adoption is uneven; pick tools matching your distribution channels.
What AI does well here
Embed provenance metadata in images
Use detectable patterns in text where supported
What AI cannot do
Survive aggressive editing or paraphrasing
Replace policy on disclosure
