Ai detectors suck Other
Me and my Tutor worked on the whole essay and my teacher also helped me with it. I never even used AI. All of my friends and this class all used AI and guess what I’m the only one who got a zero. I just put my essay into multiple detectors and four out of five say 90% + human and the other one says 90% AI.

Fellow GPT lover here. I’ve been using since the beginning (second year teacher in my early 30s).
It’s not about if the student is lying or not — it’s that the tools aren’t anywhere near good or reliable enough to prove that they are. It’s wildly unethical to use a tool so (frankly) shitty to try to hold anyone accountable for anything, and unless the teacher that wrote this response in OP’s portal has been living under a rock for the past two years, they 1000% know that.
Elsewhere in this thread, someone pointed out that the constitution comes back as 96% AI generated. I highly doubt the list of stinky old bastards that crammed themselves into Liberty Hall three hundred years ago included Claude.
So I’ll say it here openly — using AI is not technical plagiarism, we have to be able to prove plagiarism. We cannot prove anyone has used artificial intelligence to supplement their writing (or whatever else) because a reliable tool to do so doesn’t exist.
