Imagine if something like adding jokes to serious texts becomes a legitimate way to authenticate your articles, as AI wouldn't do that

Not until it's trained on those articles anyway

It's already super easy to instruct AI to write in a specific style thanks to zero shot priming etc, you can just instruct it to add jokes, so no that wouldn't work

I’m not sure why you all have this idea that AI is and will always be like Commander Data from Star Trek. For what it’s worth, that conceptualization of robots dates back to the very roots of the word in the 1920s book Rossum’s Universal Robots. You know, back when they didn’t exist.

In reality, AI will do whatever you train it to do. Tomorrow’s AI will always be able to overcome whatever idiosyncrasies people are exploiting in the AI of today. ChatGPT already inarguably passed the Turing test, which is a signal that we should stop evaluating these systems based on the ideas of last century.

I had a coworker point out a mistake he caught on a job site and say to me (referencing previous conversations about whether or not AI could do our jobs) “you think an AI would have caught that?”

All I was thinking was “yeah, easily, absolutely and 100% of the time. It wouldn’t have been there in the first place.”

The solution is to include an original meme and get it reviewed by a meme board.

The more we move ahead in education, the higher the chance of accidental plagiarism. I would hate to be the first person to have an exactly identical paper turned in at school and get in trouble for plagiarism, lol

according to academics, the biggest problem that humanity faces is that students will use technology to satisfy their work assignments.

AI will bring interesting challenges to society. but all we hear about is teachers worrying about plagiarism.

it's like the 1970s calculator crisis all over again. (there actually people advocating for regulating and licensing calculators)

If students are plagiarizing the work, then they may not be learning. People already get degrees in fields without properly understanding the material. It can also kill innovation. If people don't understand the material they need to, them they probably won't be able to change it and improve it.

What stops someone from training an AI on their own past essays or feeding it messages to personalize an essay to sound like it was written by yourself?

Time, effort, resources, knowledge, …

Tech will probably obliterate most of those barriers soon enough though.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 84%. (I'm a bot)

> What readers - and indeed the peer reviewers who cleared it for publication - did not know was that the paper itself had been written by the controversial AI chatbot ChatGPT. "We wanted to show that ChatGPT is writing at a very high level," said Prof Debby Cotton, director of academic practice at Plymouth Marjon University, who pretended to be the paper's lead author.

> He said academics could still look for clues that a student had used ChatGPT. Perhaps the biggest of these is that it does not properly understand academic referencing - a vital part of written university work - and often uses "Suspect" references, or makes them up completely.

> Bristol University is one of a number of academic institutions to have issued new guidance for staff on how to detect that a student has used ChatGPT to cheat.

AI might be a Crimson Hexagon for the Library of Babel

I remember there's something about an AI interpreting brainwave during dreaming as an image

Can there be some soet of equipment that can measure changes on a brain into data an AI can determine whether or not learning has occure nased on changes in the brain?

This can also perhaps be a way to induce those changes faster using a different method

It isn’t even plagiarism. Plagiarism is coping the work of a human. Not submitting AI material

PrincessSnivy t1_jculjw8 wrote

Where do you think the AI get its material from?

Edit: also, plagiarism generally refers to any kind of submitted work that is not your own. So if an AI writes something and you submit that as your own work, that is plagiarism.

Unlikely_Birthday_42 t1_jcum8in wrote

Anything that is not your own [as in belonging to someone else]. That has always been the premise of plagiarism, that it’s something belonging to someone else. If there is no victim, there is no crime. AI reads and learns just like humans do. There is a difference between AI copying and it learning. AI plagiarism doesn’t exist and is a fear monger if term to try to scare and shame kids from advancing into the modern world. AI is our future and it’s best that we work with it. Schools need to change how they teach anyways, versus banning AI

Somewhat of a fine line right, it's doing the same thing you would be doing to write a paper, taking other people's information and explaining it in your own way, just the AI's way not yours. I agree schools need to figure out how to embrace it and teach kids to use it to understand concepts to explain themselves rather than let the AI replace their own original thoughts.

Just because an AI made it does not mean that you are not appropriating work that you did not do yourself…? Plagiarism refers to taking credit for any kind of work that you did not do yourself.

Also, you must have a very poor grasp of how current AIs work if you think that they are the future of education. If you do not mind me asking, have you ever gone to university?

If the work is attributed to the AI it's not plagiarism. If someone tries to say they write it when an AI did, that's plagiarism. Plagiarism is when you try to pass off work you didn't write as your own writing.

That’s changing the definition of plagiarism

earlandir t1_jcw794y wrote

What's the definition of plagiarism that you are using? Merriam Webster says "to use words that were not your own without crediting the source". To me that perfectly describes what I said.

It's time to move past copyright.

We have been living as single interconnected cells since the dawn of the internet and now AI faces us with the truth: what's made by a human belongs to humanity. We are cells in a larger organism.

You can disagree with this but you can't disagree with the fact that keeping up the legislation in the future will be near impossible.
