Definition

AI Text Detection refers to classifiers trained to distinguish machine-generated text from human writing, typically by picking up on statistical fingerprints like token predictability, repetition patterns, or stylistic tics. These systems underpin plagiarism checkers and content-moderation tools, but they are notoriously brittle, prone to both false positives on human writers and false negatives on cleverly styled AI output.
