Some interesting items in this article: "98% of education institutions using Turnitin have enabled the AI writing detection feature." That's 65 million papers - 3.3% of which were (says Turnitin) containing 80% or more AI-written text, and 10.3% containing at least 20%. I should note that it's not yet clear that AI detection rates by Turnitin or anyone else are accurate. But the article - basically a quick rewrite of this press release - doesn't mention that. I wonder whether an AI author would have offered more complete coverage. (The press release was also cut-and-pasted by eSchool News. I'd be embarassed.)
