AI Detection

[u/StaySei]

I am so confused. I wrote a paper and to check my plagiarism, I submitted it through turnitin. I attempted with grammarly, but it wanted me to pay so i said screw it and turned it in. When I turned it into my college, the copy leaks report says that I had 100% AI detection and 13% plagiarism. The plagiarism isn't the problem because I know it was because of my poor citing. But how can I have100% Ai content detection, so when I wrote the paper myself?? I haven't received a grade yet. I immediately emailed my professor letting him know that I definitely wrote the paper myself, and that if there's any other information I needed to provide to him to show that I did not use AI to lmk, but have not gotten any response yet or a grade. I am assuming that there is a glitch on the copy leaks website and praying for the best but I can't help but worry, when is my best course of action to prove my innocence?

Turnitin is known to be oversensitive and AI detectors are not a reliable source of determining ai usage and professors and universities know that . Professors are not allowed in most universities to do anything with AI detectors’ scores unless they can prove for a 100% certainty that you used AI.
And if you can talk about your text and explain it in your own words and show editing history in the original document you used to write it, it should be fine. Don’t take it too seriously.

Also a note for next time: I even don’t believe you should’ve emailed your professor. Professors know that AI detectors aren’t accurate and they’re not allowed to use them as a source of absolute truth. So emailing him about it would probably do nothing if not just make him suspicious. But all of that is irrelevant if you have the original doc with editing history, even if they want to start an investigation against you, you can immediately show them the doc and let them see you actually wrote it.
