Although I do agree that AI-generated text being passed off as original content should not be rewarded (on Hive or elsewhere), I fear that it’s going to be exceedingly difficult to stop.
As a university professor, I’m convinced that there’s no way we can continue relying on essays as a way to gauge student learning and comprehension.
I’ve taken steps to make it harder for my students to rely on AI to write their essays, but it’s an uphill battle that’s only going to get harder.
Even with OpenAI’s classifier, all the students need to do is revise the essay enough to fool the classifier, and eventually other AI tools will do that for them.
