Anthropic is working on an open-source system to verify which AI model produced a given output, according to a blog post published Tuesday. The system, called FlashProve , is built to provide what researchers call “provable inference” – a cryptographic proof, essentially a mathematical guarantee, that a given output came from a specific model. It’s meant to let users confirm that the answer they received really came from the model they think they’re using.

Similar to cryptographic email signatures that let recipients confirm a message really came from its claimed sender, FlashProve would be robust against impostors attempting to disguise one model as another, even when the impostor is the lab that built and runs the model. In particular, the researchers note that the system could be used to prevent an AI company from secretly swapping in a cheaper model to cut costs, or a more expensive model to inflate its performance results.

FlashProve could also be used to verify claims by third parties that a specific task was done by an advanced model. “A developer might claim that their software library was scanned for vulnerabilities by a frontier cybersecurity model, or a company might claim that its business plan was given the go-ahead by an appropriate model,” the researchers write. “How can a user verify these claims?”
