OpenAI Says AI Detectors Not Effective - Study Shows Otherwise

The study is available as a counterpoint to recent statements from Open.AI on the inability to distinguish between AI and human generated content

COLLINGWOOD, ONTARIO, CANADA , September 6, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Originality.AI, a leading AI Detection Tool has responded to an article by Open AI claiming that artificial intelligence detection is not effective by providing their own data showing otherwise.

Open AI, one of the leading providers of artificial intelligence technology, recently shelved its efforts to develop AI detection capabilities, announcing that no tool can reliably detect AI generated content.

“Do AI Detectors work? In short, no. While some (including OpenAI) have released tools that purport to detect AI-generated content, none of these have proven to reliably distinguish between AI-generated and human-generated content.” - From Open AI¹

This is not the first time that the AI detection sector has come under fire, as the FTC has warned on multiple occasions against tools claiming AI detection accuracy or unsubstantiated AI efficacy.

“If you’re selling a tool that purports to detect generative AI content, make sure that your claims accurately reflect the tool’s abilities and limitations.” - Federal Trade Commission

Originality.AI supports this view from the FTC and have made it easy for any company to test its own data to understand a detector's efficacy, Providing:

1. Detailed Data Study²

2. Open Sourced Data Set

3. Open Sourced Tool³ to allow researchers and customers alike to test AI detectors against various datasets in order to determine the rate of AI detection and false positives.

The Data Study shows that despite what OpenAI’s statement suggests, AI detection can reliably be accomplished.

By suggesting that AI detection technology is not worth pursuing, Open.AI is resigning us to a dark future where AI generated content is accepted in the same pool as content created by real humans.

“While we understand what they [Open.ai] are attempting to communicate (AI detectors are not 100% accurate) the reality is that they are effective and the societal costs of AI content being undetectable is too high for these simplified statements” - Jonathan Gillham, CEO Originality

Undetectable AI carries a host of possible negative outcomes that make the use and development of AI detection technology imperative:
Fake job, university, and scholarship applications
Fake news and mass propaganda
Academic dishonesty
Plagiarism
Fake product reviews
