Super cool approach. I wouldn't have guessed it would be that effective if someone had explained it to me without the data.

I'm curious how easy it is to "defeat". If you take an AI generated text that is successfully identified with high confidence and superficially edit it to include something an LLM wouldn't usually generate (like a few spelling errors), is that enough to push the text out of high confidence?

I ask because I work in higher ed, and have been sitting on the sidelines watching the chaos. My understanding is that there's probably no way to automate LLM detection to a high enough certainty for it to be used in an academic setting as cheat detection, the false positives are way too high.

That is a genius approach, though a big challenge is probably going to be to select the correct corpus

I tried running this with some output from a Wizard-Vicuna-7B-Uncensored model and it returned ('Human', 0.06035491254523517)

So I don't think that this hits the mark, to be fair, I got it to generate something really dumb but a perfect LLM detection tool will likely never exist.

Good thing is that it didn't false positive my own words.

Below is the output of my LLM, there's a decent amount of swearing so heads up

Edit:

Tried with a more sensible question and still got a false negative
