This should make it easier to catch cheaters who use Claude, right? Unless everyone runs their artifacts through some watermark and metadata sanitizer?

As long as they’re in the EU.

It will happen if Claude tampers the text. Guaranteed.

Text is too low bandwidth to classify reliably without lots of false positives. Especially as people start talking like LLMs.
The approach Pangram has taken which works pretty well is to simply lower the recall a lot but ensure the precision is very high. Which means potentially high false negative rate but low false positive rate.
