Thanks to the real PLB for uncovering the little factoid that now the computers are lying to us too... I can see the headlines now: "A Beekeeper Brings Down AI". I certainly hope there's time somewhere to for him to write such an article. This thing is downright dangerous, and we know they won't be purposely disclosing any of this...
This is far from "beekeeping", but I'm currently a student at University of Cambridge where they take plagiarism quite seriously - even a hint of something fishy and you're out with no questions asked. Currently all our essays are run through Turnitin which is a similarity checker that scans our work. I've seen it even correlating phrases down to as few as two words in sentences of similar subjects published by others (even other essays). I would never dream of using this Chatbot for any of my work, but I'm sure it's only too tempting for others. SO... I see Turnitin is on the path to detect AI written material, but it's the citations I'm worried about because they are detected as word for word similarities on purpose.
Somebody needs to hit this in the head before it gets even further out of control.
