And another message. There was absolutely no need for this and we got the companies wanting to create an AGI god, putting these students in this awful situation. These "AI detection" tools need to be banned.

@timnitGebru This just sounds like when "plagiarism detection" tools hit my middle/high school, except in this case, there's no actual basis for its determinations.

Fantastic. The AI will just get more "human" and humans will just get "caught" more and more.

I was unfortunate enough to be a very strong writer as a child, the kind of person who later went into writing technical manuals. I got flagged by those on a regular basis, meaning I had to spend even more time on my essays than everyone else, because I was constantly told to rewrite the offending parts.

@Raccoon @timnitGebru Yep. It's about compliance, not learning, and it shows in how they implemented those goddess-awful systems.

@Raccoon @sydneybrokeit @timnitGebru yep. Also punished for reading too quickly, in my case.
