Turnitin, a popular program educators use to detect plagiarism in student papers, announced Monday it has added “AI detection capabilities” amid the boom of ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence platforms.
Turnitin can detect “the use of AI writing tools including ChatGPT, with 98 percent confidence,” it said in a press release.
“Educators told us that being able to accurately detect AI written text is their first priority right now,” CEO Chris Caren said.
