all they have to do is put an invisible header in.
Fun Fact. When you use your printer, there is a code that you can't see that identifies where the printout came from.
It all comes down to language skills but DON'T TELL ME HOW TO WORDS! amirite?

So media buzz notwithstanding, it's about as reliable and as useful as ChatGPT is.

Just think of how powerful this ChatGPT tool will be for intelligence agencies. I'm already hearing about it being used for some business proposals and other internal reports at the company I work at as well as others.

I've heard that.  It's the only thing that keeps me from sending death threats to politicians I don't like and celebrities that won't date me. But if it's true, wouldn't a lot me people who didn't know that be on jail?

I worry more about false negatives than false positives. Some student could get royally farked if one of his reports got wrongly flagged as AI-written.

They have had plagiarism detectors for years, if not decades. They get it wrong all the time too.

They say it only works reliably 1 in 4 times. If it's reliable 1 - 4 times, swap the yes / no output and you are right 3 - 4 times.

Consistency is consistency.
