I can see far too many privacy issues with copy and pasting text into a website, and/or registering an account which will keep a history of the text checked.

Are there any services available that are noted for being private?

For context, I’m using uBlacklist to manually block website that use AI generated content.

    The problem with those detectors is that they are barely better than guessing.

    You’re most likely capable of outperforming such a detector by spotting semantic issues. Like when I tried to find how to configure saddle stool and the article said that my outstretched legs should reach pedals.

    That may also be due to poor and cheap manual writing but you’ll not lose a lot by blocking those, I guess.

      I’ve tested quite a few, and they seem extremely accurate. Even when fragments of text have been AI generated, they point those out.

      I mean, some websites I’ve visited seem AI generated, and the verification sites simply confirm my suspicions.

        Test them on known good articles, like those before 2019, and calculate the rate of false positives.

          0% AI detected.

          It does rate on a scale, so it’s not always 100% or 0% (sometimes it is). But it has been very reliable in the tests I’ve done. Apparently, false positives are something like 0.2%.

    I wish I could ban AI “art” and weird bikini clad AI thots popping up as suggested items in my feeds on social media. I have the feeling AI is going to ruin the web due to the sheer volume of garbage it plasters all over it.
