In a study recently published in the journal Patterns, researchers demonstrate that computer algorithms often used to identify AI-generated text frequently falsely label articles written by non-native language speakers as being created by artificial intelligence. The researchers warn that the unreliable performance of these AI text-detection programs could adversely affect many individuals, including students and job applicants.

That's actually very interesting, i would not have expected that.

I feel like I should have expected that. The fact that they write in a non-standard way would be a red flag to detection software.

may the farce be with you
