OpenAI's AI text classifier is only 26% accurate at detecting AI text and mislabels human text 9% of the time.
Advanced AI systems trained on vast amounts of text data to generate human-like text based on patterns learned during training.
The main topic discussed is whether we can reliably determine intent in cases of plagiarism.
The act of using someone else's work or ideas without proper attribution, considered a serious ethical violation in academia.
Ideas expressed in ChatGPT queries are incorporated into the ongoing training of ChatGPT, potentially making them public domain unless the user disables 'chat history.'
A method used in the GPT algorithm where the model predicts the next token in a sequence iteratively, based on the preceding tokens.
If one repeats a query verbatim, ChatGPT will generate a new output that can differ substantially from the prior one.
A field of computer science focused on creating systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence.
Giving due credit, which is the essence of plagiarism.
The fundamental unit of text in the GPT model, which can be a word or a larger unit such as a citation.
Hallucinations refer to erroneous outputs generated by ChatGPT, where the model produces false or misleading information.
The APA Style Guide defines plagiarism as 'the act of presenting the words, ideas, or images of another as your own; it denies authors or creators of content the credit that they are due.'
Below 1%
A measure used in cognitive psychology where participants are asked to complete a sentence, used to study language processing.
Initially, ChatGPT could provide summaries of copyrighted material, but later it responded that it cannot provide the contents of copyrighted works, indicating changes in the ChatGPT interface.
Full transparency; if an idea is received from ChatGPT output, it should be declared.
A conversational AI model developed by OpenAI that uses the GPT algorithm to generate human-like text responses.
Generative AI software like Stable Diffusion has been known to generate pictures containing watermarks from the original training set, leading to copyright lawsuits.
A key aspect of the morality of plagiarism is intent. Appropriating an idea known to belong to another is a moral breach, and failing to make a reasonable search of the literature before claiming ownership of an idea is poor scholarship and potentially a moral breach if done intentionally.
1) A single source, 2) Multiple sources, 3) The programmer’s scripted responses, 4) The user’s query, 5) The fickle randomness included in the algorithms, 6) Previously inchoate patterns across many sources.
Authors are still held morally responsible to remember where they first encounter an idea and to practice due diligence in seeking out prior claims for credit for an idea in the published literature.
When text is pasted into ChatGPT, the software will paraphrase it and add its own text, as appropriate for a student paper.
ChatGPT provides a stepwise running total for each step in word problems, which is not typical of human responses and suggests specialized code in the ChatGPT front end.
Any action that violates the ethical standards of academia, including plagiarism, fabrication, and falsification of data.
The potential problem is that ChatGPT might provide summaries of scientific works without proper citations, as it can only provide citations if other works have summarized the original work along with the citation.
The Plus version of ChatGPT costs $20/month and provides access even when demand is high, is faster, and offers priority access to new features, including GPT-4 rather than GPT-3.5.
Fixed error responses in ChatGPT suggest that the programmers have implemented code to obscure the extent to which copyrighted materials are part of the text model.
ChatGPT is compared to ELIZA, a simple program from the 1960s that mimicked a Rogerian therapist by outputting fixed sentences in response to specific keywords.
A proprietary algorithm developed by OpenAI that generates text by predicting the next token in a sequence based on patterns learned from a large training set.
The primary concern is how to give credit to the nameless authors whose texts were included in the training set of the AI, rather than giving authorship credit to the AI itself.
The lack of a citation is taken as a conscious claim of ownership by the author of the idea, which is a serious action in academic writing.
ChatGPT's citations are sometimes hallucinated, meaning it may generate citations that do not exist by combining elements from different sources.
It is challenging to determine whether text was produced purely by a text model or by specialized programmer code, making it difficult to ascertain proper source attribution.
A technique in natural language processing that analyzes relationships between a set of documents and the terms they contain by producing a set of concepts related to the documents and terms.
The degree to which AI programs can source ideas from unpublished sources on the internet without attribution.
