Google's SynthID only detects content made by Google's own AI tools and marked with its specific watermark. It cannot identify images, videos, or audio generated by other companies' AI models, or by Google's tools if the watermark has been intentionally removed or corrupted. This means many AI-generated fakes will slip through. The story mentions this limitation.
