Enable watermarks for AI-generated content for Microsoft 365 Copilot

Add watermarks for AI-generated content.

Roadmap ID:547831

Details:

What changed: To help provide additional transparency about what content has been generated or altered by using AI in Microsoft 365, watermarks can be added to videos and audio content. A policy setting controls your organization's ability to add a visual or audio watermark to video and audio content that your users generate or alter by using AI in Microsoft 365.

Why: Adding watermarks increases transparency and helps prevent misuse or misattribution of AI-generated content.

Try this:

• To turn on watermarks for video and audio content that your users generate or alter by using AI in Microsoft 365, you need to use the "Include a watermark when content from Microsoft 365 is generated or altered by AI" policy. This policy is available only in Cloud Policy service for Microsoft 365. If you want to add a watermark to video and audio content, you need to set this policy to Enabled. If you set this policy to Disabled or Not configured, a visual or audio watermark isn't added.
• This policy doesn't apply to images. Instead, your users will be able to turn on watermarks for images by going to Settings & Privacy > Privacy > Data options at https://myaccount.microsoft.com.

Why this matters: To help provide additional transparency about what content has been generated or altered by using AI in Microsoft 365.

Business impact: Organizations can control when to add watermarks to AI-generated video and audio content.

Personal impact: You gain confidence that your AI-generated content is properly labeled.
