OpenAI has developed a new watermark technology with 99.9% accuracy in detecting ChatGPT-generated content. This technology aims to prevent academic dishonesty by identifying AI-written essays and research papers. However, OpenAI’s internal concerns about user backlash and the potential for watermark removal are hindering its implementation.
A groundbreaking study from the University of Reading reveals that AI can produce exam answers superior to real students, raising concerns about academic integrity and the future of education in the age of AI. The study, which used ChatGPT to generate exam answers for psychology students, found that AI-generated responses not only scored higher but also went largely undetected by markers. The findings highlight the urgent need for educators to rethink assessment methods and adapt to the evolving landscape of AI.
