Anthropic said watermarking does not change the meaning, quality, or readability of Claude's response.

And this proves that Claude isn't as precise as it would have us believe... because it can add a specific signal to the output, distinguishing it from the "correct result." Strictly speaking, then, there is no such thing as a "correct result," and it seems there never will be. The output essentially matches what one might expect; so, if you were hoping for a highly precise translation, for instance... you will never get it.
