Turnitin’s AI Writing Detection is designed to help educators identify text that might be produced by a generative AI tool. The tool shows the percentage of text it suspects was AI-generated and details the exact segments of concern in its report. Unfortunately, this tool is prone to missing AI-generated content (especially with the newest AIs) and falsely flagging human writing, so it must not be the only measure used to discern student misconduct. Turnitin is a useful tool to begin confirming the student use of AI but it is not infallible. If an assignment is flagged by Turnitin as being generated by AI please reach out to your program director and forward questions related to academic misconduct to Charlie Drummond (cdrumm11@jhu.edu) or aapstudentconduct@jhu.edu.
