OpenAI's AI tool addresses ChatGPT Academic Dishonesty Concerns - International
With the introduction of the popular artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, it has become increasingly popular among students who have used it to write essays worldwide, raising concerns from academic institutions. However, OpenAI, the company that owns ChatGPT, has come up with a solution to this problem by introducing a software tool to recognize text written with the help of artificial intelligence. ChatGPT is a free service provider program that generates text in response to commands, including articles, essays, jokes, and even poetry. The chatbot has gained widespread popularity since its launch in November, despite concerns about copyright and plagiarism.

According to Reuters, the company's Nytool AI Classifier is a language model that is adept at comparing datasets of human and artificial intelligence writing on the same topic, with the aim of distinguishing between the two. The company said the tool uses a number of password voiders to address issues such as disinformation campaigns and academic dishonesty. OpenAI has publicly acknowledged that this AI detection tool is unreliable for text under 1,000 characters and that AI-written text can be edited to fool the classifier. "We're making the classifier available to the public to get feedback on whether imperfect tools like this are useful," OpenAI said. "We recognize that AI-generated text recognition has been a major point of debate among educators, and classifiers must recognize the limitations and implications of AI-generated text in classrooms." Other companies have also created third-party detection tools, including GPT Zerwax, to help teachers detect AI-generated texts. OpenAI said it is in discussions with educators to discuss the capabilities and limitations of ChatGPT to continue exploring AI-generated texts.
According to the American website For Churn, students in the United States and around the world are using tools like ChatGPT to cheat, which has caused concern in educational institutions. That's why BotChat GPT, which was launched in November last year, has gained widespread popularity among millions of users, leading schools in some major US cities, including New York City, to ban the use of AI chatbots to prevent cheating and plagiarism. One of America's largest school districts has decided to block the ChatGPT website on school computers and networks, and other schools are considering doing the same.
