ChatGPT: Putting the “AI” in “Plagiarism” worldwide?

The rise of AI tools like ChatGPT has sparked debates about their use in academic settings, with some professors praising them as helpful homework tools and others condemning them as plagiarism. Plagiarism detectors are commonly used to identify unoriginal content, employing methods such as n-grams algorithm, fingerprinting, fuzzy-based methods, semantic-based methods, and stylometric-based methods. However, with the advent of AI-generated text, a new challenge arises: distinguishing between bot-written and human-produced work. Several classifiers have been developed to tackle this issue, including GPTZero, OpenAI's classifier, and DetectGPT. While these tools show promise in detecting AI-generated text, their accuracy is limited, especially when it comes to other languages or heavily modified machine-written content.
