As schools grapple with how to spot AI in students' work, the FTC cracks down on an AI content detector that promised 98% accuracy but was only right 53% of the time.
None of these detectors can work. It’s just snake oil for technophobes.
Understand what “positive predictive value” means to see that. Though, in this case, I doubt that even the true rates can be known or that they remain constant over time.

Even if they did, they would jsut be used to train a new generation of AI that could defeat the detector, and we’d be back round to square 1.
Exactly, AI by definition cannot detect AI generated content because if it knew where the mistakes were it wouldn’t make them.
