Openai: OpenAI shuts down tool that told users if content was written by ChatGPT – Times of India
Ever since ChatGPT arrived on the tech scene last year, there have been many questions about ethics and principles. For example, how can teachers find out if an assignment written by a student has been ChatGPT generated or not. Writers, teachers, academics all have expressed concern over this. There have been tools that can help detect if the content written has been generated by AI or not.
OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, also had a similar tool. However, according to a report by The Verge, OpenAI has shut down the tool called AI Classifier. In a blog post, OpenAI confirmed the development.
Low rate of accuracy
In the blog post, the company said that the tool has been discontinued as of now. “As of July 20, 2023, the AI classifier is no longer available due to its low rate of accuracy. We are working to incorporate feedback and are currently researching more effective provenance techniques for text, and have made a commitment to develop and deploy mechanisms that enable users to understand if audio or visual content is AI-generated,” OpenAI said in a blog post.
The tool was launched in January this year. Even at the time of the launch, OpenAI had admitted doubts over its accuracy. “Our classifier is not fully reliable,” OpenAI had said. The company had further said that in its evaluations on a “challenge set” of English texts, the classifier correctly identifies 26% of AI-written text (true positives) as “likely AI-written,” while incorrectly labelling human-written text as AI-written 9% of the time (false positives).
There are many other tools but they remain a bit of a hit-and-miss. As generative AI catches on with more users getting into ChatGPT and Google Bard, it is expected that such tools too will catch on. OpenAI has also not ruled out the possibility and might just launch a revamped version later.
