    Please don't waste your time using AI powered 'AI detectors'. There's no such thing. Some relatively rare AI generated images and videos contain a synthid or other tag to show that they were AI generated, but those can always be removed and it's not something you can do with plain text.

    There is absolutely zero benefit to using something like this, but it can cause harm to real people as these often falsely report that an author or student's actual own words are AI generated.

    Yea it's a statistical guess. The statistics are weighted in a certain direction for me seeing how many times this person seems to be caught up in the same accusation and all of his profile link websites looking... the way it does. But of course it could just be that he happens to write a lot like how AI would generate text.

    It's a blind guess that's weighted against people who are well read and don't type like complete idiots. AI are trained on human language. They write like human writers. There's no universal magic formula for "how AI would generate text." AI detectors are nonsense. That is all they are. The only thing you're doing by using them is feeding data in and accusing people of being witches if an AI tells you they are.

    Aha! Now I've got you!
