Accused of using AI tools

Dear students,
I posted last week about being falsely accused of plagiarism,
Well my last update is that Uni ,
Just accused me of using AI tools....

Which is a comedy situation because I'm so confrontional against AI tools.

I've never used AI tools and I'll never use this kind of things to do any of my assessments.

What are your thoughts in this situation?

I said that this procedures of marking assessments have to change....
But now definitely the system it's wrong at all levels.....

Difficult times for students
Feeling guilty for no reason.

You will need to wait and see what evidence they are using to support this allegation. Remember, it is only an allegation at this stage. If you did not use and AI apps to write your assessment, you have nothing to worry about imo. In the meantime, can you start pulling together the materials you used to write the assessment, including any drafts. Plus speak to the SU who will have an overview on this kind of thing.

Apparently things like Grammarly will flag as AI since they now advertise that they use Generative AI. I don't know what tools colleges or universities use, mine flagged a lot of people for using AI but they use Google Classroom for submissions. Unless they have hard evidence that you've used AI then I don't think they can do anything, since a lot of the online "AI Detectors" give false positives due to using high level vocabulary, especially in academic essays.

I think AI is **** anyway, google uses it automatically now when I search something on the web. I was slightly amused when some results are copied straight from Wikipedia.

Based on the weird format and the grammatical mistakes in your blurb, i would say if you do use AI you need to sack them immeditately. All machines are equal but some are more equal than others.

Hi there,

I do understand your frustration.

The only safety mechanism I can think of is to save your work to different files as you write it to be able to prove that it was written by you step by step. This method is being used for as long as word processing software exists, and can help you to prove the ownership of your work.

Let me know if you have any questions,
Ilya
