An AI detector is basically a plagiarism detector trained on AI datasets. Fundamentally it's about discovering writing that is too similar to existing writing, which is why I'm concerned about false positives.
Yeah, which is why "AI detection" is crap. It's basically the plagiarism detector with the false-positive dampening turned off. (I know, I know, it may not be exactly that under the hood, but I think that's what it amounts to in practice).
I think you and I agree. I'm just saying that the "AI wrote this" flag on something that's notoriously not AI-written should be enough to reject outright the use of these detectors.
Like a mechanic who warns me that my Tesla doesn't have a muffler. They're technically correct, but I wouldn't trust them to diagnose anything in the future.
