[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there anywhere "safe" for a student to check without the uploading causing AI generation flagging itself?  Can one just load essay into chatGPT and ask, or are there other apps that are better?

You don't upload to GPT to check for AI. OMG.[/quote]

Stupid question, but why not?[/quote]

GPT is not a AI checker. It manufactures AI. It will hallucinate and tell you there's no AI when there is.

There are separate platforms for checking. Many were named earlier -
the best are: Originality, GPTZero, zerogpt, and WalterAI. The OP mentioned one I'd never heard of but apparently schools now use it in addition to Turnitin bc it's the most reliable?[/quote]

Thank you for this.  We always fear that uploading and checking adds another data point which ends up flagging an original essay as AI-generated.  Would these apps do that?  The OP seems to allude to the fact that some of these apps would do just that.[/quote]

No. That’s not how AI detection works. It’s looking for syntax, watermarks, hidden structures that are emblematic of AI.

In college, many papers are screened through Originality/Turnitin. Once inputted it doesn’t become AI.

The OPs problem was accepting grammarly changes. It can turn a paper from 0-5% AI to 90-99% AI with accepted grammar/ phrasing changes to ONE SENTENCE.

[b]Remember an AI detection of 90% does not mean that 90% of the written work posted is produced with AI. It means there’s a 90% chance that a portion or all of the document was produced with AI.[/b][/quote]
I think this is the part not many people realize. I’m not even sure the teachers generally do. [/quote]
