  "transcript": "I wrote an entire paper over the last few days for my college course. 7 pages with 10 citations to back up my own research. Even though 0% of it was written by AI multiple checkers online are saying it is 100% written by AI. I hate how I might fail a course and get kicked out of college over bs AI checkers saying my 100% handwritten work is fake. One of the checkers said an entire sentence was AI written because I started it with the word \"studies\". I am so sick of the new academic reality that I might fail through no fault of my own because people are lazy.\n\n\n\n--- Top Comments ---\n\n\n[68 upvotes] Those online AI \"checkers\" such as ZeroGPT and the like are totally unreliable, and give false positives all the time. If you typed your paper up in something which has a revision history tool then you can prove it's not AI written.\n\n[26 upvotes] Ai checkers are universally bogus, but are beloved of university administrators and some faculty. They give a simulation of objectivity. Pretending to be able to spot AI is a marketable talent, much like spotting witches four centuries ago, or communists in the 1950s. \n\nI put a chapter I wrote in 2015 through five AI checkers, and got scores of 50% to 84%.\n\n[15 upvotes] Find things written by the school or professor, run it through the same tool, point out all of the false positives.",
