– how does a plagiarism software (like Turnitin) work?

294 viewsOtherTechnology

I’m talking about softwares like Turnitin which is used mostly for academic purposes. Recently it also has come up with feature of AI detection where it identifies if any part is copied from chatgpt or some other AI chatbot.

How does the platform work? How do they know which sites I’ve copied text from? Specifically, how does it know whether any part of the text copied is from some AI platform?

It guesses. The exact details on how it makes the guess are secret. It is very often wrong.

>How do they know which sites I’ve copied text from?

They search the internet. It’s no different from your teacher seeing a suspicious phrase and copy/pasting it into Google.
