👀 OpenAI Says No to ChatGPT Detector

Breaking News: OpenAI has developed a system to detect content written by ChatGPT, but they are choosing not to release it to avoid upsetting users.

Here's what's happening:

• OpenAI's detection method is claimed to be 99.9% accurate.

• A survey found that 30% of ChatGPT users would reduce their usage if the detector were released.

• Academics argue that the detector is necessary to prevent cheating in schools.

Why it matters: Students using ChatGPT to complete assignments and essays is a significant issue. If OpenAI released its detector, teachers could identify cheating students. OpenAI’s refusal to release the tool suggests they prioritize profit over addressing important concerns, leaving the education system vulnerable to AI-related cheating.
