Towards Saving the Internet: Introducing 'Save Scans' on Origin
Today, we’re excited to announce a major update to Origin — giving users the ability to transfer and save content discovered on our Origin chrome extension for further analysis in the GPTZero Dashboard. This feature builds upon Origin’s last update, which enabled the scanning of entire websites for AI analysis. We realized that just scanning as you browse wasn't enough. People needed a way to remember, revisit, and re-analyze the content they encounter daily. The New Power of Origin With
ESL Bias in AI Detection is an Outdated Narrative
Recently, we've seen the resurfacing of a previous narrative on (social) media that AI identification is biased against and failing ESL students. But this is an outmoded view from out-of-date research. In this article, we revisit the original study on ESL bias from Stanford University, and discuss the progress GPTZero has made in mitigating detection bias. Finally we replicate and re-run the original study with the same dataset and parameters outlined by Stanford researchers to demonstrate conc
GPTZero Partners with American Federation of Teachers (AFT) to Introduce New AI Education Tools to Classrooms
In October, GPTZero and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) announced our new partnership to build a pedagogical framework and tools for responsible AI adoption in education. This new alliance is the first of its kind between an AI technology company and a teachers union with over a million members, working to bridge the gap between AI technologies and our classrooms. Working with AI, not against it There is, without a doubt, a place for AI in the classroom, according to Randi Weinga

The Next Generation of Turing Tests
On Friday, September 15, the GPTZero research team ran a human study with more than fifty AI researchers from the University of Toronto Vector AI Institute and affiliate groups. The results were conclusive that even the researchers most familiar with AI language models are unable to discern patterns of AI writing without GPTZero assistance. The study started with members of the GPTZero machine learning team attending the Vector Institute for AI career fair, alongside a variety of companies pitc

Introducing GPTZero's New Full Page Scan
Last week, GPTZero launched an exciting new update — the ability to scan and analyze entire webpages for AI text. "With the emergence and advancement of AI-generated content, we wanted to make validating the source of information as easy as a click of a button." said Edward, our CEO. "With this new update, people are now able to." The feature, Full Page Scan, is available free to all users of the Origin Chrome Extension. The feature allows users to detect AI-generated content across an entire
Newsguard’s GPTZero Powered Investigation
Gordon Crovitz and Steven Brill, co-CEOs of Newsguard, first approached GPTZero to learn more about our technologies in March. Veteran journalists, Crovitz and Brill shared their work combatting misinformation and preserving transparency in news. It resonated with GPTZero’s mission to preserve what's human. With a shared goal, we were excited to make a meaningful impact together. The Challenge: The emergence of generative AI posed a grave threat to trust in information consumption across the
Discussing AI Policy with the UK Royal Society
On July 6th, 2023, a remarkable gathering of minds occurred under the banner of the UK Royal Society. A collection of academic and industry experts in artificial intelligence convened for a policy roundtable, to explore complex topics in AI development and potential government action in the UK. Among the participants was GPTZero, adding a unique perspective on AI regulation and adoption. The event started with opening remarks from Andrew Blake, former lab director of Microsoft Research, and mac
Authenticity in the Application Process — Case Study with Coding it Forward
At GPTZero, we strive to empower organizations with the tools to respond to AI. In this case-study, we explore how the GPTZero detection model aided Coding it Forward in ensuring the integrity of their 2023 application process. Let's dive into the details. Several components of our application process require a personal touch — elaborations on past experiences, future goals, and detailed thought processes. AI-generated responses to these questions lacked nuance and prevented our reviewers from
