Researchers have developed a method called computational provenance that allows generated text to carry verifiable evidence of the internal computations that produced it. In controlled experiments with feed-forward and transformer-based models, they demonstrated that subtle statistical patterns in the text could reveal which specific internal state was used, even when the final answer remained the same. This proof of concept shows that information about a verified, causally relevant internal state can be preserved in generated text, offering a potential pathway for greater transparency in AI outputs.
