@drrachelbarr: AI detection tools are limited by the very mechanism that defines LLM text. They do not belong in academia. #neuroscience #science #chatgpt #student

as a catalan native speaker doing a PhD, some of my papers got rejected by the plagiarism detector in part because of the fact that we are not english native speakers and sometimes we don't have that much of lexical or syntactic richness in front of a native speaker

The em dash is not on the keyboard. Period. Unless you know enough to use alt codes, no human can access the em dash on a keyboard. That red flag of seeing an em dash in a report, and saying ai wrote it is extremely valid.

Very interested. Is there a publication you suggest (or wrote yourself) about the differences LLM versus human text or about the thoughts you present here?

As an autistic, I feel that "AI text" is sometimes really similar to my style. Not saying all autistic have the same flaws, but what feels like a "natural flow" to me often looks deconstructed (and somewhat underdeveloped or too much) by allistic folks... It shows how much we still don't know how to truly differentiate between ai vs human (especially due to diversity within humans)

Teachers should just switch to the Socratic method and/or have students orally explain their research/papers and how they reached their conclusions

I wrote a 750 word short story "from scratch" and had my Cabinet staff run it through an AI detector. It said it was over 50% riddled with AI. 😅 I'm sorry my vocabulary is expansive?!?

I would think highly stylized writers would also be at risk

I use em dashes all the time! I also use serial commas. ✌️

I wrote a 10 page research paper before AI was really around. Out of curiosity I put it through AI detection a couple years later and it told me the paper was written by AI. This makes me nervous as a current adult college student!

it should be outlawed because it's a black box. None of these schools actually know why the detection software deems a particular sentence likely ai, as in they don't see the code. they are basically just using one program they don't understand to understand another program they don't understand.

The irony of the institution using AI tools to catch students from using AI tools is very late stage capitalism.

There are now AI tools specifically for making your text pass AI detectors. So Ai detectors are ironically promoting increased Ai usage by pushing honest students to use Ai in order to avoid wrongfully being accused of using Ai.

I completely agree, one false positive is too many. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I was accused of using AI because my writing was “too professional”. I’m studying postgraduate medicine, I have 3 other degrees, and 2 decades of work experience. So… I should hope I’d be good at writing this stuff by now?! It’s very frustrating as someone who’s always put a lot of effort into producing high quality writing, and - hopefully! - ideas

It makes me so mad that the em dash was listed as an AI tell. I love the em dash! Commas are weak; parentheses feel immature. I already lost my Oxford comma—do not take my em dash away too!!

Ai programs archive 700+ sat score in maths. that's very high, and to say ai isbad education is missing the point. what ai reveals to us that education of copy pasting data is useless as ai does it better. what education should be about is philosophy and critical thinking to use this tool to its fullest potential to combat false positives.

I think the real problem here is that education relies too much on coursework. I don’t see any problem with students using ai to help structure or explain but if they rely too much on it, their degree will be pointless as they won’t have retained anything. I think the future will/should be less and less coursework based.

Yes, that’s because it’s normal, everyone uses it, you can’t use AI to determine it was AI or Not. ( ppl said the same thing for Computers and Calculators) It’s not the end of the world.

I hate that the “big indicator” is just when students write coherently.

Two years ago, I introduced & presented the "AI Deflection Factor", which highlighted the error factor risks in AI data and its long term consequences. Its highly ignored because the focuse is on the hype of AI race & how to make the most out of it, while ignoring the fix! Because its costly & its impact is not obvious (for now), however in a dacade we have to deal with those consequences & pay the high cost of correcting what we should have done long before.

The problem isn’t to LLM or not to LLM. Humanities education has come full circle, setting form over function and content. We mock our “backward” ancestors, but of the seven educational fields of the trivium+quadrivium, a typical student receives two and a half, with a gifted student selecting one partial additional subject.
