AI Text Classifier (OpenAI)

External

OpenAI's AI Text Classifier is a free tool that uses a fine-tuned GPT model to detect AI-generated text, assigning labels from 'Very unlikely' to 'Likely' based on content analysis. Designed primarily for English text by adults with a minimum of 1,000 characters, it supports AI literacy by providing quick probability assessments. Though discontinued due to accuracy limitations like a 26% true positive rate and 9% false positives, it remains a key reference for understanding early AI detection challenges. Ideal for casual users exploring text authenticity in low-stakes scenarios.
