Please don’t waste your time using AI powered ‘AI detectors’. There’s no such thing. Some relatively rare AI generated images and videos contain a synthid or other tag to show that they were AI generated, but those can always be removed and it’s not something you can do with plain text.
There is absolutely zero benefit to using something like this, but it can cause harm to real people as these often falsely report that an author or student’s actual own words are AI generated.

Exactly. In my view, this serves no other purpose than to avoid having to engage with an unpopular opinion. It’s a cheap way of dressing up a personal attack as a supposed argument.

Yea it’s a statistical guess. The statistics are weighted in a certain direction for me seeing how many times this person seems to be caught up in the same accusation and all of his profile link websites looking… the way it does. But of course it could just be that he happens to write a lot like how AI would generate text.
