"Kelsey Piper argues that, once you have a decent amount of writing on the internet linked to your name (for example, journalists), you have a recognizable “fingerprint”. She shows how, even when she tried to write anonymously, some recent AI models were able to “guess” who she was from her text. This is mostly an issue for journalists and anyone with a large corpus of their own content online, of course. But it also shows how anonymity is getting weaker by the day."

I can never talk to an AI anonymously again (15min)

@fasnix @stephaniewalter I still suspect a more likely explanation is that the author information is somewhere there pretty straightforwardly, in the model weights or in a secret system prompt. Anthropic could be doing a lot of work to figure out who their users are and their social graphs (wasn't Meta's Muse doing exactly that?).
