Demo of TurnItIn - New AI Detection Tool

TurnItIn launched a new AI detection tool in April 2023. This video shows what it looks like and what you need to know as a faculty member or a student.

Fun fact, I literally just got accused of using AI to cheat 10 hours ago. It was literally the most stress inducing thing I have ever experience and I fought thick and thin to convince my teacher why I was not cheating. Truth be told, I had very little to argue in my case as how do I even prove my own writing from AI when they both look so similar to me. In the end, I did leave without a 0 for my grade, but at the cost of half my sanity.

Professors should put their works through an AI detector and see the results

[ypztlvp]

I don't think its results can be fully trusted. Because for students whose native language is not English, their articles may indeed have redundant sentences, which makes their homework have the opportunity to be misjudged as AI-generated. It is irrational for some teachers to completely believe that students are using AI to write homework when they see a high percentage of AI work detection indicator.

This detector isn’t remotely accurate nor is it trustworthy. I got falsely accused by my professor of using AI on an essay that I worked on for over a month and got a 0 for it. I fought like hell against him to beat that accusation and I walked away with the grade I deserved but it costed me the good mood I had in the morning .

To my fellow college students, make sure to use Microsoft word and google docs from now on to type your essays. They display your version history and will show the exact time and day of you typing. I didn’t have this when I was clearing myself but I will from now on as it’s great proof of the writing being yours. It’s a shame that we have to provide proof just to absolve ourselves of something we never did.



Isn’t turnitin great?

This is an extremely poor indicator of misconduct or plagiarism. It seems to be that these AI tools are basing their percentages off of what? Excessive redundancies in the text of the output? Is that correct!? Teachers and educators need to take caution. I mean there is a reason why they put a disclaimer that "percentages are not indicators of misconduct".

[Cawnnak]

a teacher job is not to catch cheaters but to improve student's skill and understanding.

If a teacher decide to play this game, you will fight the wrong war and innocent will get hurt.

If a student decide to cheat, they cheat themselves by not being honest themselves. We lived in a free world not a fair world.

I have a problem, my Turnitin just shows the AI Percentage, when I click on AI percentage, such is report is not traced, and gives the detection that this file is not supported by the computer, is there any software for AI detection just like highlighted in this video?

[hilaryodinamba]

With the AI tab on Turnitin, s#it has really hit the fan.

[BilgeSamet]

Great tutorial! This is exactly what I needed to get started.

[radhapriya]

Hi, can you please tell me how to check ai on that turnitin app the one you used to check plagiarism and ai detector?

[possum]

My english professor accused me of using chatgpt to write my essays. I use Grammarly to assist me in my punctuation and spelling mistakes as well as Grammar but apparently he had a problem with it that he waited until almost the end of the semester to tell me then fail me anyways

How do I gain access to turnitin ai detection?

[Xxx-hkmk]

I have a complaint it sucks it detected my completely human one and detected it 100 percent ai these algorithms dont work

[sandrasaldivar]

Why doesn’t turnitin allow students to view the AI score

[littlemoredetailed]

hi, thanks for such an informative video. Please guide me that does this tool also show student that the student has used IA to that extend. is that is visible to the student side too inorder to correct and replace the assignment within time

[jacobosborne]

It will never get able to tell if you summarize an article with GPT then rephrase it with your own words.

My schools says you can submit on turnitin multiple times until the final day of submission. Tho I had initial plagiarism score of 6% I had to make some corrections to my work and hyperindex my references. I finally made my 4th submission yesterday at 11pm. It’s been 15hours and my work still says pending. The portal for submission closes in the next two hours. I so much hate this turnitin. My worse nightmare.

[muazamkhan]

Hey i got a question, this is really giving a lot of stress i have my file it was an open book exam which included 2 question i did not cheat but used various articles, sources and some books as well referenced everything, parapharesed and cited everything but im getting similarity of 39 percent.. I don't know whether is it a big problem?

[maxrules]

Does it tell the students when they submit it to turnitin?

[Eallie]

There are multiple AI tools which to use?
