Having some AIs that do this and some not will only muddy the waters of what’s believable. We’ll get gullible people seeing the ridiculous and thinking “Well there’s no watermark so it MUST be true.”

Sorry but the problem right now is much simpler. Gullibility doesn't require some logical premise. "It sounds right so it MUST be true" is where the thought process ends.

And the lack of label just reinforced the confirmation bias.
