AI audio provenance is becoming a critical concern for developers as AI voice applications integrate into various industries. The challenge lies not only in creating realistic synthetic speech but also in proving its origin and integrity after it leaves the generating application. OpenAI has expanded its SynthID watermarking to audio from ChatGPT Voice and the OpenAI API, while Google DeepMind is also researching and deploying audio watermarking. A robust provenance workflow requires more than just a watermark, incorporating embedded signals, attached metadata, and operational evidence like logs and consent records to ensure generated audio is verifiable, harder to abuse, and safer to investigate.
