It could not tell the difference.<\/p>\n<p>From Article:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The tools have a documented accuracy problem. OpenAI deployed a text classifier of its own in early 2023 and pulled it six months later \u2014 its accuracy on actual AI output came in at 26% \u2014 worse than a coin flip. The major commercial alternatives \u2014 GPTZero, Pangram, Originality.ai \u2014 share the same structural flaw: they\u2019re pattern matchers flagging text that statistically resembles LLM output. The catch is that much ordinary human writing looks like LLM output, because LLMs learned from human text.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Article Link:<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/boingboing.net\/2026\/04\/06\/ai-writing-witch-hunts-hurt-autistic-writers-most.html\" xlink=\"href\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/boingboing.net\/2026\/04\/06\/ai-writing-witch-hunts-hurt-autistic-writers-most.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Me:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The book Shy Girl was destroyed by youtube\u2019s asshole commentary community and low IQ Reddit Posters all with hate in their heart.\u00a0 If you are a member of the echo chamber of trolls that set out to help whatever paid group of instigators to destroy someone online, hoping that you too will be rewarded with attention and clicks,\u00a0 you should seriously behave like a grievous monk and thrash yourself.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/kick.com\/mmchuck\" xlink=\"href\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1136\" src=\"https:\/\/mmchuck.com\/m\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mmchuckico.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"350\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mmchuck.com\/m\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mmchuckico.webp 350w, https:\/\/mmchuck.com\/m\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mmchuckico-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/mmchuck.com\/m\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mmchuckico-150x150.webp 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The best way you can support me is go to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/kick.com\/mmchuck\" xlink=\"href\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/kick.com\/mmchuck<\/a> and subscribe.\u00a0 It cost a low $4.99 a month using browser.\u00a0 You can also tip me with kicks if you want to support but do not want to subscribe.\u00a0 A 500 Kicks Package Cost $7.99 using browser.
