[quote=Anonymous]In the past, some schools used the essay for evidence of writing ability, but others use the essay for the purpose of understanding something about the person, how they think. I am skeptical that college AOs can necessarily tell whether an essay was AI and AI detectors aren't super accurate, though typically they lean toward detecting everything as AI rather than failing to detect. I agree with a PP that students aiming for top schools should avoid AI entirely. For schools outside, say, the top 50, or narrower, maybe outside the top 30, using AI or not probably makes no difference, as the essay is not a significant factor if other aspects of the app point toward admission.[/quote]
