Comment: OpenAI discontinues its AI text detector…

Bastian, M. (2023, July 25). OpenAI discontinues its AI text detector due to lack of accuracy. THE DECODER. https://the-decoder.com/openai-discontinues-ai-text-detector-due-to-lack-of-accuracy/

“‌OpenAI was aware that the system had a low reliable detection rate and that it misidentified human text as AI text nine percent of the time in tests. The company was open about these weaknesses and explicitly stated that the tool was not suitable for recognizing student essays, for example.”

If OpenAI doesn’t trust the AI detector they built, to determine the accuracy of the content generator they built, why on earth would we believe that Turnitin has figured it out?
