I'm not kidding I've been thinking about writing a similar post the last few hours. I had ChatGPT provide me with an outline to structure my essay based on key points I wanted to focus on. Then I wrote the paper myself. Every other AI detector is reporting back 100% human text. For some odd reason, quillbot is telling me anywhere from 33-60% in random sections I wrote on my own. Feel like I never should have checked anyways and was just being paranoid. Now I'm worried I'm totally screwed. Answer from Deleted User on reddit.com

r/ChatGPT on Reddit: How accurate is quill Bot Ai detector ?

April 1, 2024 -

So I did use gpt for my essay but simply for idea and how to expand things, and more points I could make, I never copy pasted off it. So i put my essay though Zerogpt,grammaly, Ai detector, and all of them said human written or giving me low percentage, but quill Bot is giving me 57% chance ai text generated.???

Just use a “more human” ai or use a mix of both, if you mix together it’s harder to recognize. My recommendation is to go on LLm arena and experiment a little bit, Claude 3 opus is great, for example. (Honestly I switched to it)

After taking help from Chatgpt the first time to write my paragraph, I rewrote the sentences in the paragraph in my own words to get rid of the ai detection in quillbot but still there's always 31% ai detection. Any idea why?

Top answer

1 of 5

honestly quillbot’s kinda mid for that tbh. like it’s good for rephrasing but not for actually humanizing the tone. ai detectors like GPTZero or Turnitin look for deeper stuff like rhythm, predictability, and burstiness, not just swapped words. i’ve been using Walter Writes lately (it’s one of the best AI humanizer tools i’ve found) and it makes writing sound way more natural, like someone actually typed it. makes it a lot easier to bypass detection without killing the flow. if you’re tryna make your stuff undetectable, that’s a better move imo.

2 of 5

No. Copy and paste something from ChatGPT in there. It’ll say 0% ai detected.

r/ChatGPT on Reddit: Quillbot ai detector

May 7, 2025 -

I have two essays due and I was wondering if anyone else has had similar issues with quillbot

Since it’s an important essay I’m checking if it’s ai generated but I do this in chunks of 200 words because if I put in the whole paragraph it always says no ai detected

Should I trust it when I put it in full paragraph or in parts ?

I try to change the bits marked by ai but sometimes it just says that my edits make the rest of it sound like ai instead of just saying no ai was used n getting worried cus I made a small change n it went from 20% to 60% n I was like wtf 😭😭

Top answer

Quillbot's hit or miss tbh. sometimes it just swaps words and still sounds robotic. I've had better luck with walter writes ai, feels more like it's rephrasing how a real person would talk, not just thesaurusing stuff.

yeah i’ve had that happen too, kinda confusing, i usually trust chunk testing more, but when i need real clarity, Winston AI gives way more consistent and accurate reads

r/UniUK on Reddit: Does using Quillbot make your work detectable for AI or plagiarism?

June 6, 2024 -

I’m not talking about the paraphrasing tool, rather the free AI detector, and using Grammarly to detect plagiarism. I don’t have access to turnitin (only the staff do I think?) so I can’t actually see how much work is plagiarised or not, but lecturers have said that student’s putting in their own work into plagiarism detectors can get flagged on turnitin.

I just wanna know if that’s a myth or if it’s actually true

Top answer

1 of 6

lecturers have said that student’s putting in their own work into plagiarism detectors can get flagged on turnitin. Technically true: you have to check what rights you are giving up by putting your work into free detectors - like some AI programmes they might keep your work in a database. If that database is shared with turnitin or other plagiarism software then it might flag your essay as plagiarised, because it's coming up as similar to the work you've inadvertently deposited in the free detector. I don't believe that Grammerly or Quillbot have an agreement with turnitin so in this case you're probably fine; however, you shouldn't need to use them to detect plagiarism. You wrote the essay, so you know if it's plagiarised or not. If you quote someone else, then put in quote marks and give a citation; otherwise use your own words, don't rely on stuff like grammerly to write it for you, and you'll be fine.

2 of 6

Do not use free AI detectors, not only are they not as accurate, they’re also not what we use; if you don’t use AI there’s no need to use an AI detector. Same applies to similarity scores, you’ll never have to check if you’re not copy and pasting and using your own thoughts. If you’ve used too many quotes you should be able to tell from just reading your work.

r/UMGC on Reddit: AI Detector accuracy

August 17, 2024 -

I am at a loss here. For background, I am not an English native speaker. Writing in English has always been a bit awkward for me. Grammarly and Quillbot have been a blessing.

The issue I am having is this. I am writing an analysis for my first assignment. I wrote the whole thing. I obviously paraphrased from the source material. I got curious and put it through Quillbot's AI detector. Imagine my surprise when it said that it is 100% AI generated. Once I put it through Quillbot paraphraser, it lowered it to 58% AI generated.

I don't know what to do here. Beyond lowering my own standards of grammar, which I am not going to do, I am afraid that a professor might think I am cheating.

Is there anybody else having this issue or experienced this? Am I overthinking this?

Top answer

1 of 4

I just want to make sure I understand this. It said that your write was 100% generated, but then when you used the tool to generate a paraphrasing of your own text it said it was now only 58% generated? Seems a bit backward to me. To answer your question, none of the current AI detectors are any good at all. Just do your own work, and if it is ever questioned, there are plenty of articles that you can use to fight your case.

2 of 4

This is very typical for non-native English speakers. One reason being that we (ESL student here as well) do not use the same vocabulary as US high school attendees. I believe there are SAT related terms that AI detectors look for, as an example. Those of us that did not spend years preparing for SATs, are not going to score high in that department, leading to a "red flag". The detectors are exceptionally poor at detecting AI generated work. This is well known and therefor faculty are not supposed to use these tools. They use turnitin. I am a native German speaker. I will be graduating in the fall of 25. I have not had a single doubt regarding the validity of my essays, etc. Simply keep your drafts and outlines you produced while composing your analysis, and you will be fine. That will be sufficient evidence that you provided your own work. Keep up your hard work. It's normal to be worried, just talk to your professor about it.

r/ChatGPT on Reddit: My essay being flagged as AI when it is 100% human written

May 5, 2024 -

I wrote an essay about AI replacing jobs. I'm not the brightest guy ever and i'm average compared to my classmates but I barely use AI on any school work.

I put the essay in quillbot's AI detector, and oh man it's 42% AI. I've never even opened my ChatGPT app the whole day, nor did I open any type of AI writing website.

Now my teacher is calling me out for supposedly using AI on my work. I even said to him to try and detect my AI work on other websites and would you look at that, almost all of them showed near 0% AI except one that showed 60%

Honestly, I hate when this happens. Are there some things I should do to clear "AI" on my works? I don't use AI detector on my work before passing them because I am 100% certain that it is not and I definitely wrote it without ever using any type of AI.

Turnitin explicitly advises not to use its tool against students, stating that it is not reliable enough: https://help.turnitin.com/ai-writing-detection.htm “Our AI writing detection model may not always be accurate (it may misidentify both human and AI-generated text) so it should not be used as the sole basis for adverse actions against a student. It takes further scrutiny and human judgment in conjunction with an organization's application of its specific academic policies to determine whether any academic misconduct has occurred.” Here’s a warning specifically from OpenAI: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/8313351-how-can-educators-respond-to-students-presenting-ai-generated-content-as-their-own This paper references literally hundreds of studies 100% of which concluded that AI text detection is not accurate: A Survey on LLM-Generated Text Detection: Necessity, Methods, and Future Directions https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.14724 And here are statements from various major American universities on why they won't support or allow the use of any of these "detector" tools for academic integrity: MIT – AI Detectors Don’t Work.

r/UniUK on Reddit: Does using Uploading content to Quillbot's AI Detector, indexes the content, resulting in consequent plagarism?

April 10, 2025 -

I wrote an assignment paper on my own but used Grammarly's suggestions and GenAI tool, and ChatGPT to frame sentences properly. Then, I used Quillbot's AI detector tool to see if there were excessive traces of AI in certain parts of my paper. My University doesn't have any problem in using AI for writing papers and I have taken care of citing the sources properly. My concern is, however, does uploading my work to Quillbot's AI Detector get it indexed somewhere on the internet, which may consequently result in plagiarism? Does anyone have an idea about this?

Top answer

1 of 4

If your university doesn’t have any problem with using AI to write your papers, why would you go through the effort of attempting to remove the evidence of said AI writing? No Quillbot is unlikely to index your work in a way that would trigger a self-plagiarism.

2 of 4

Sparingly used would be using it to help brainstorm and generate ideas. Not write out full sentences or paragraphs. If you’re trying so hard to get rid of traces of AI, would that mean you are acknowledging that perhaps you didn’t use it sparingly. If so, just rewrite it in your own words rather than relying on an AI detector. AI detector are not accurate at all. They have already been tested with the bible and US constitution which have come back as AI generated, even though obviously they are not. Any decent university wouldn’t rely on AI detectors. They rely on human markers who would compare your work to older work, look at patterns in your writing and begin a thorough investigation if they believe AI has been used inappropriately and in some cases AI use is obvious. And if you get called in get ready to prepare evidence in your defence.

r/copywriting on Reddit: AI DETECTION TOOLS ARE DRIVING ME NUTS

July 17, 2024 -

I just started a new job. During. interview, they mentioned that I needed to pass my work through AI detector tools. Okay, no big deal, right? Since Im already writing everything myself, it shouldnt be too much of a problem.

Hoo boy was I wrong!

Day 1, wrote my copy, passed it through zeroGPT, 30% AI content. Okay, I will rewrite a few sentences, no problem. Content sails through, everybody's happy.

Day 2, they liked my writing on day 1, so I was given more work. They were short blogs, around 450 words each; completed all of it, went to check it through the damn AI detector, BOOM. 80% Ai. 100% AI. 69 FUCKING PERCENT AI!

What is the damn detector even going to detect when I have typed every single word, why my own two hands!?!??! The fuck is going on? I spent 2 hours trying to 'humanize' my ALREADY HUMAN work to appease AI fucking Christ.

Oh and I put it through multiple detectors, Copyleaks, Quillbot, ChatGPTs own AI detector. The fun part is that each detector has its own damn opinion of how much of my content is AI written. One says 69%, other says 50, and yet another says 12.

I swear AI is going to be the end of humanity.

This is why i dont apply anymore when i submit my test and they say it's getting flagged by AI and that they would give me a chance to correct it.

AI detectors do not work.

AI detection tools sound like a scam. AI can be very helpful for copywriters even at the highest level. The publisher of the copy should be able to tell if it sounds like a human wrote it without their own software tools or they are unqualified for their job.

That’s why I decided to write a decent tutorial about AI writing detectors (AI Content Checkers) and review the best ones like: GPTZero, ZeroGPT, Turnitin AI Checker, Grammarly AI Checker, Quillbot AI Checker, Scribbr AI Detector, and others. We’ll do a real test to see if they’re fake or not and whether it’s possible to bypass AI detectors nowadays. I even generated a ChatGPT image using the latest model for this post. Let’s go!

If you want to avoid high detection and humanize ai content - read my tutorial How to Humanize AI & Best AI humanizers Best AI Humanizers with proofs reviewed here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataRecoveryHelp/comments/1oqwdib/best_ai_humanizer 🎁 If you need to Humanize AI right away try this: https://aihumanizer.net - 100% Free Ai humanizer (nice human score in ZeroGPT & GPTZero, simple language) https://www.zerogpt.com/ - ZeroGPT Checker (My top choice.

Who cares? You can look yourself. I will only get scores before and after and share with you. Reddit allows you to attach only one image per post, so, sorry! What AI detector do colleges & students use? It’s definitely Turnitin AI Checker. There’s no free way to check it without registration. I tried, and it asked whether I’m a student, instructor, or teaching assistant. I didn’t want to lie, so I quit. But I’ve read a lot of Reddit discussions, and both students and teachers give the same answer to the question: “How accurate is Turnitin AI Detector?” The simple answer: Not accurate. Haha! Lots of false positives and easy to manipulate with special prompts. Ok let’s do a simple test of the rest popular best AI detectors and checkers: For this test, I’ll generate a simple essay titled “What is an AI Detector and How Do They Work?” (500 words). Then I’ll show you the score before and after some basic humanization using simple prompts.I’m intentionally skipping web-based AI humanizer tools because I already covered those in this tutorial.I’ll use ChatGPT 4.1 Mini – fast and cheap. I assume a lot of writers and students might be using this specific model.

What is the most accurate AI detector & how does an AI detector work? I have a short answer for you already: not even close to accurate! Because there’s no single algorithm that can make a text 100% AI or 100% human. It’s all about patterns. But those patterns are often what real people use too. Besides, you can easily create a prompt that breaks the patterns. OK, let me give you a basic understanding of how an AI detector actually works: Think of it this way - when an AI writes, it tends to be super predictable and efficient with its word choices. It’s like a really smart, but sometimes boring, student who always picks the most statistically probable answer. Humans, on the other hand, are messy! We use quirky phrasing, vary our sentence lengths, and sometimes throw in unexpected words or even make “mistakes” that an AI wouldn’t. AI Detectors with Their Own Model AI detectors look for these differences: Perplexity: How "surprising" the next word is. Humans tend to have higher perplexity because we're less predictable. Burstiness: The variation in sentence length and structure. Human writing is like a rollercoaster. AI writing can be more like a flat road. Repetition: AIs might repeat phrases or structures more often. Stylometry: They analyze things like average sentence length, vocabulary richness, and even punctuation habits. They then feed all this data into a machine learning model, which has been trained to recognize the "fingerprints" of AI versus human writing. It spits out a score indicating the likelihood of AI involvement. AI Checkers Using Other Model APIs Some fake AI detectors don’t have their own model at all. All they do is ask another AI whether the text looks like it was written by AI or not. It’s a very expensive method (because you pay API credits every time) but literally very cheap to develop. All you have to do is choose the cheapest API and get results instantly. But here’s the catch - I tried this tactic, and it gave me about +-50% accuracy, haha! That’s crazy! That’s why I’m sure you’ve noticed the same content sometimes gives you a different score over and over again. Here’s another example: some AI detectors use their own basic scripts - like checking whether the content has a closed em dash or not, or if there’s phrasing like “dive in,” “in the digital era,” or “digital landscape.” If they find these words or combinations, they simply mark the content as 90% AI. Stupid? Oh yes! Are AI Detectors Reliable? I’ve tested a bunch of AI detectors, and here’s the deal: none are 100% reliable, not even 85%. Even the best ones only hit about 70–85% accuracy – and that’s in perfect conditions. Free tools often do worse. False Alarms Happen Sometimes, detectors flag real human writing as AI. This is especially true for non-native English speakers or overly structured writing. I’ve seen stuff like the U.S. Constitution get marked as AI! They Miss Stuff Too On the flip side, newer AI like GPT-4.1 can often slip by undetected, especially if the text has been edited a bit. So yeah, AI-written content can fool detectors more than you’d expect.

r/AskProfessors on Reddit: Will Turnitin AI detection Detect Quillbot if I Used it on All of my Assignments?

May 13, 2024 -

I have multiple learning difficulties and I am studying at a UK university as an international student, given the background I found struggles with writing High quality papers and using correct terminology to paraphrase. I have been using Quillbot for a few years (Before it became "cool"). I would usually paraphrase a few sentences and then manually choose words I deemed to be better fitting, of Course providing proper referencing when inserting the text into my document. This way I could find better words to use and get more consistent text without using same words over and over to describe certain things. I had never had issues with it and I have even received compliments from lecturers on my writing style.

With recent hike in AI academic misconduct our university has introduced strict policies that ban the use of AI tools. However when I spoke to Students Union employee about this, I was told that Turnitin is also using old submissions to flag inconsistencies in writing styles. With that being said I feel trapped between Using Quillbot the way I did for all my assignments and risk AI detection or Use dictionaries to find synonyms to use, but risk being flagged for inconsistent writing style.

I used AI Detectors to check if my old submissions would be flagged and certain sections were detected as AI written. I am not sure what to do and I am not even sure who I should talk to at university without being considered as cheater.

I will be thankful for any advice!

It may. But the larger problem here is you're undercutting your own ability to learn how to write effectively. Tools like AI are only actually useful if you already know how to distinguish between strong and weak writing, which means developing the skills (putting in the time) to learn how to be a strong writer. Your whole post is a series of excuses and concerns about getting caught. Learning difficulties does not mean you should get to use AI/Quillbot. It might mean you have more work to do, but it doesn't mean that you should use these tools. At this point, I think you need to wait to see if any of your submissions are flagged, and then explain what you did. Old submissions are unlikely to be flagged at this point, but going forward just start doing your own work.

I can’t speak to whether you’ll get caught, but I absolutely consider use of Quillbot to be a violation of ethical use of AI in my writing courses. Use that information as you wish.

r/ChatGPT on Reddit: HELP. Is all my work lost? AI Detector shows 100%

April 18, 2024 -

Hello everyone,

I don't know if it's my ADHD and because i have been hyperfocused on this problem since this morning, but I'm feeling sick to my stomach. Let me give you some context. I've been working on my thesis in a social science field for 7 months. My topic is super niche, and the research was exhausting with very few sources available. I did extensive research and included significant original research.

Here's the problem: I come from a non-academic household, and ChatGPT has been incredibly helpful in addressing my uncertainties. My work involved asking ChatGPT for ideas on how to proceed with my analysis, and if I liked a suggestion, I incorporated it. I often wrote my thoughts or sentences into ChatGPT and had it help me refine or clarify them. I rarely accepted suggestions directly without further commenting and critically questioning them, maintaining a "dialogue" with ChatGPT throughout.

Today, for some reason, I decided to check my work with AI detectors by sending in some paragraphs. Most detectors indicated a 20% to 50% chance that the text might be AI-generated, which didn't worry me much. But then I tried Quillbot, and it flagged many parts of my text with a 100% chance of being AI-generated. I'm at my wit's end. No matter what I change, the result is always the same: 100%. When I insert other academic texts, it shows 0%, but with my thesis, it’s 100% every time. It’s driving me crazy.

I've tried paraphrasing myself and using humanizer AIs, but the result is always the same: 100% likely AI-generated text. I'm at the end of my rope. Are over 6 months of work down the drain? Is there any way out of this? I've even started reading research papers on how to evade AI detection, but Quillbot always marks my text as 100% AI-generated. Should I just ignore this program?

I know there have been many posts here saying these detectors are unreliable, but the result makes me very nervous, and essentially it is true that the text was written with the help of AI. Please be kind, I'm too exhausted for criticism. I need to know how i can recover from this and what are my options to procceed.. any advice is deeply appreciated.

Thank you

You are definitely overthinking. AI detector is fundamentally bullshit because AI learns from actual human language. Just focus on building value, and use AI as a tool to build your own point of view. If someone rejects your work saying its AI made, state that while AI was used, the interaction between your own intellect and the AI was crucial for the high quality of the end result. If still rejected, ask for factual proof that the text was partially or totally generated by AI (which is impossible), also, you can always sue. I think whoever invalidates an idea based on suspicion of AI use is profoundly lacking understanding of the technology and it’s potentials.

This is something I start to fear about out society regarding AI. I start feeling a persecution against the use of AI as if it was cheating or something highly immoral. An example is instagram that is making mandatory to flag if q given content is created with AI and displays it clearly. Even if the user don’t flag it, they will eventually detect and flag if themselves. I see on photography communities, photos that have been edited with the hell of AI tools becoming absolutely discredited. Wattpad, a platform for book publishing is banning books that are detected as containing any AI generated content. By any, I mean even the cover image or any illustration. This happens despite the focus of the platform being the writing and the images being only complementary!! Come on, AI is a tool we are supposed to help us enrich our work. It someone uses it to enhance a phrase, to explore ideas, what’s wrong?! If someone just let the AI do all the work by himself will naturally end up having it full of incoherences and the result will be very poor. At least for now. There is no need for verification tools, if the outcome of using AI has good quality and is accurate it only means the author used it correctly and had the knowledge needed to validate all the information. Let’s stop being picky about the use of AI

The whole AI thing is kind of dodgy because some ppl in my class had their works marked as AI even though they typed the whole thing.

lmfao i literally emailed IB to ask about this. in their academic honesty doc u can read about paraphrasing tools and IB says theyre allowed (except for subjects where grammar and structure is in the criteria) which included langauge B iirc not language A

Quillbot is not a reliable tool for AI detection. Requesting mods to stop using it.

Here is a screenshot to my post and Quillbot shows 0% AI generated.

Now, look what happens when I just add asterisks to make the titles bold

It just bumps up to 72%, with no change in other texts.

Other tools like Undetectable AI, ZeroGPT and GPTzero still detects it human and max 18% AI.Results from GPTzero

Another example, from a recent article.

This shows 100% AI generated on Quillbot

Now, when I just remove some punctuations marks, it turns to 0%

Interestingly, all other AI tools shows the original text as human written without any changes, while Quillbot shows it 100% AI

I tried many different variations before posting this. And just with a little tweak in what you select from an article, the Quillbot screws it up drastically.
