  • Publication number: 20250062909
    Abstract: A method for detecting content generated by artificial intelligence is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes monitoring interaction between a user and a generative AI model. The method intercepts a response returned from the generative AI model to the user and embeds, within the response prior to its return to the user, codes that are invisible to the user when viewing the response. In certain embodiments, these codes are embedded within the response in a particular invisible code insertion pattern to indicate that the response was generated by the generative AI model. The method returns the response to the user for viewing. A third party may utilize the embedded codes to determine whether the response was generated by the generative AI model. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 12229222
    Abstract: Classifier accuracy is increased in machine learning applications by training a machine learning (ML) model including a classifier across classes by determining weighted input points for a contributing set to store the values for true positive and true negative predications. In a following step, input data is provided to the classifier of the machine learning model at runtime, and a classification output is determined from the classifier. For the classification output, values for input during runtime are compared with a sample of inputs stored for training the machine learning model to determine the distance in spread for the classification output. A class is determined from the classification output having a smallest distance and spread. The method can further determine if the class with the smallest distance and spread is a true positive or true negative by comparing the class with the smallest distance and spread with the classification output.

  • Patent number: 12229202
    Abstract: A recommender system and method to facilitate non-biasing search queries, social media feeds, and other platforms in which a user searches, scrolls, and engages with information and ideas so that a user can explore ideas outside of, or even contrary to, the ones with which they are aligned. Through a computer-implemented “curiosity halo” recommendation engine and method, users are made aware of the existence of other notions centered around or connected to a topic. The users could also engage to be directed to adjacent notions and “lines of flight” around the topic, thereby broadening their perspective and strengthening their ability to think “outside the box”—or bubble. By adjusting a threshold based on curiosity level and tolerance for divergent thinking, the boundaries of the curiosity halo are continually redrawn in real time so that users can dynamically uncover topics and ideas outside of their day-to-day experience.
