New tool tracks human vs. AI authorship in text and code

A new open-source tool called "us-vs-them" has been developed to track the provenance of text, distinguishing between human-authored and AI-generated content. The tool analyzes version history in Git repositories to identify lines of code or text written by humans versus those produced by AI agents. This can help developers maintain ownership and control over specific code sections or documents, ensuring AI agents are more cautious when modifying human-created content. AI

IMPACT Provides developers with a way to manage AI contributions to code and text, ensuring human authorship is respected.
