What Faculty Need to Know
The emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic’s Claude, has introduced new challenges in verifying student work as their own. In response to these challenges, dozens of AI-writing detection tools have recently become available. While these tools are marketed as a potential solution to this emerging problem, they are better understood as supplementary resources with accuracy and reliability that require cautious, critical consideration. To better understand the appropriate and ethical use of these tools, it is helpful to understand and acknowledge both their specific strengths and limitations.
