Student fights AI cheating allegations for using Grammarly | NewsNation Prime

[@KrusadeMinistries]

If Grammarly was, as they report, explicitly authorized at the time she did her paper, then it's case closed... she's innocent. She used the grammar checker that the university itself recommended. She should have her probation lifted, her record cleared, her paper re-graded, the professor/university officials who punished her reprimanded, and she be given a public apology.

Woah Woah what else you want, world peace? Don't be sneaky. Just bc it's called grammarly doesn't mean that it doesn't have an AI *STYLE* correction feature, that rewrites many sentences for the user. saying she just used a "grammar" checker is misleading

If it's not an acceptable resource to use, then it's their fault for saying it was.

[@Dr_Frog]

Turnitin has a message to the professor that says the AI detection is not 100 percent accurate, and that you should investigate each case on its own merits, something to this effect. I have had students submit work and there was no doubt in my mind it was theirs. That being said Turnitin flagged it. Talked to the students and they used Grammarly to check their work and make suggestions. This is a bigger conversation that academia is having right now across the board. I do think for the interview to be non-biased I would have liked to have seen a representative from Turnitin be represented. I do feel bad for this young lady, it is simple take her work from her freshman year and run it through Grammarly and see if it gets flagged. Best wishes to you and your family this has to be tough.

[@Dr_Frog]

In defense of the resources I have taken complete dissertations and run them through Grammarly made the suggested changes then went back to Turnitin and nothing in 160 pages or so was flagged. Not sure now that Grammarly is using AI if this would impact the outcome.

[@Indigolden]

The Turnitin AI report only says that the report is potentially inaccurate if the percentage of AI-generated content is low. The fact that the students admit to using Grammarly to "make suggestions" shows they are using GrammarlyGo, the AI tool on Grammarly. That's not just a grammar check. That's cheating.

[@jaimerodriguez-n7t]

@@juliahelland6488 I downloaded it for free too, but the first days is a trial of the premium including a style correction. Did she use it? One can also opt-in afterwards for the paid version at any time. That said, To her favor, the university's website shouldn't have included the word " style" in the recommendations, as the app takes the liberty of Re-writing many sentences when you use the correct style feature. It seems like nobody else used it in the class. My take is that she should be out of probation with a warning, the guideline should be updated, and she could have been more straightforward in this interview by saying that she didn't just use grammar correction as used in WORD, but she used the style correction.

[@jaimerodriguez-n7t]

the trial version includes the style correction by default for some days and the user can opt in for the feature at anytime afterwards. That said, the university's guidelines shouldn't have included the word STYLE, as the app style correction rewrites as many of the user's sentences as it deems necessary. Nobody else used STYLE correction in her class, though. To be consistent the guideline should be updated. She should be out of probation with a warning. Also she should have been more straightforward and transparent in this interview (I USED THE STYLE CORRECTION FEATURE). Most of the comments assume that she just corrected punctuation.

It’s not Grammerly doing the flagging. It’s a plagiarism detection software that schools use called Turn It In, which students don’t have access to. They’re 2different/separate products. If Turn It In is flagging things unfairly, the school should allow the students to appeal/contest the suspension and defend their work. Point is, the school is being unreasonable.

I'm very confused. So it did have some kind of code embedded in it that showed she used grammarly to do something to it? She must've turned it in online and not a piece of paper then.

[@mlerma54]

Every AI detection tool has a false positive error rate. Given the volume of papers produced in a university, even a small detection error rate can lead to a significant number of papers being incorrectly flagged. Consequently, various American universities have stopped using AI writing detectors due to concerns over mistakenly accusing students. Additionally, the method of detecting and proving AI-generated writing raises questions. Plagiarism from a text can be proven by presenting the original text that was copied, but proving that a text was generated by AI in a meaningful way poses a challenge. Simply claiming that it contains certain "patterns" (which patterns, exactly?) that are also found in AI-generated text may not be good enough.

AI detection is creating a false impression and ruining student privacy.

[@wrharris05]

It's one thing to use it to help your grammar or spelling, but allowing it to rewrite your work and sentences is cheating. You didn't write it. We can tell professional or AI generated writing. Undergraduate students don't write better than professors or the professional writing seen in publications. It is cheating.

[@aletheaskinner8888]

That is not always true. As an undergrad, I wrote papers that had my professors asking where I went to high school. (In Freshman Comp II, I wrote a 23-page paper titled, "The Manipulated Metamorphosis of the American Woman". My professor was used to my writing by then, having watched me write in class, but she was shocked by that paper and commented "I feel sorry for the people who work with you on your doctorate; it took me two sessions to read it!") My younger sister was given a "B" on a paper she wrote because the instructor said he couldn't prove she'd copied it, but she couldn't have written it. When she took her notes, etc., he gave her the "A" she earned. We were blessed to have attended schools in Upstate NY where teachers believed in teaching the foundations, schools for military dependents overseas, and in Oregon. I learned proper sentence structure and professional-type writing by reading LIFE, US News & World Report, National Geographic, and encyclopedias. As a writer today, I self-edit and then pay someone else to edit again. If I decide to use suggested changes, I have not cheated. The editor did not WRITE my book, article, etc. Most writers write, take a break for a few hours or days, then read and revise. Grammarly does that second step for those who do their own research, writing, and editing. It is a time saver! The best thing is that you do not have to accept the suggestions. As I type this, my computer constantly makes word suggestions and highlights typos. It is the reality of today's writing world. Using ChatGPT or other AI tools is totally different, and I will not use any of them.

I enter a handwritten paper they did into the AI checker, and it usually comes up as 90% human or higher. There should not be that much of a difference between their two works.

As far as I'm concerned, Grammarly ruined their product by offering the Go plug-in.

[@michaeljames2.054]

Wrong. As an AI model Engineer, you must know that AI checkers now advise that there may be false flags. This is to avoid any legalities, as it is impossible to fully recognize whether or not AI created something. In this case, Grammarly has updated its search model to enhance the tone of the papers in the free model, causing more and more of these issues as professors rely on AI checkers to validate documents. Now the university uses this service and is guilty of providing a faulty product to the students. This is not an isolated case, nor am I saying she might not have used AI for writing; however, with something not 100%, you cannot use it as a judgment tool. An example is a lie detector test that does not carry any weight in court.

The AI doesn’t use language in any way like a human. It uses probability of the next word to complete a grammatical sentence, and this creates word patterns in such a unique way that no human would follow that pattern. It’s something like, every third word has a probability of being X (except it’s using multiple patterns like that simultaneously). Following all these patterns over the whole paper is so unlikely that it can be detected with extreme accuracy.

Grammarly just rewords what you write. Grammarly is not cheating.

[@STaRSPRiNKLe_oX]

It doesn't even reword anything, it just gives you suggestions if you want to change a word. Also if she was using the free version, the amount of assistance she would even have is limited. It doesn't give you many suggestions to revise , if at all, it only underlines potential problems and gives fixes for easy things like commas, etc. This is the most bogus case of AI cheating I've ever heard in my entire life, especially since that tool is listed on the university website. This teacher is a first class, power hungry moron.

It's still cheating if you don't proofread and fix your errors yourself.

[@oneheadofcabbage]

ah yes, Microsoft Word's built-in spell-check feature is cheating.

[@lisalastnamesmith]

So spell checking shouldn't exist?

It has a style correction feature. I think she used that

If you don’t check your grammar with grammerly you really aren’t doing your job

[@russellmania5349]

The school provided Grammarly on their website.

[@LordDarkfart]

That is cheating. Learn proper punctuation and spelling correctly. Duh. Lazy

[@nfbconnect]

So spell check on your computer is cheating? Bc that's been around 40 years. Guess we need to fail the entire world for the last 40 years.

Facts u should know your grammar

[@chrisjackson1215]

It is, but people seem to think it's okay these days. The program itself is crap (I tried it once and it was horrible, it didn't even use proper English). IMO it's in the realm of plagiarism; you're supposed to write in YOUR OWN WORDS; not someone else's or an AI's.

Even Microsoft Word can check that for you. Would you call using that cheating, too?

Her only legitimate point is that the school's website specifically encourages students to use it, assuming the context she is claiming is true. Regardless, it's obviously wrong to to have another entity editing your paper without any additional input of work on your part. School's have tudors and people who will help you recognize where your grammar and punctuation are lacking, but they don't rewrite the wrong parts and fix them for you. That should be the standard here..

Many people suffer with language deficits. It's insane to demand each student to run for a tuttor to correct each chore.

[@robertperez273]

@@LNVACVAC welcome to college.. where apparently it's insanity to require competence. What a ridiculously childish take.

[@LNVACVAC]

@@robertperez273 Language deficits are not a matter of competence. But are neurological impairments. 15% of the global population suffer some form of language deficit.

[@LNVACVAC]

Most people commit mistakes. Native english speakers even have lower grades than foreigners on international certification tests. The average native english speaker whith higher education achieves levels CEFR B2, while foreigners achieve C1 on writting. You are insane if you think natural and exact science minded individuals will have even the training necessary to do a proofreader's job. Almost no academic article is published without being submited to a paid proofreader.

[@robertperez273]

@LNVACVAC There's an extremely long history of people overcoming these "neurological impairments" to complete more than satisfactory work. If you cannot, then you're not cut out for higher education. Just because you have low expectations doesn't mean they're incapable of learning proper skills for advanced communication.
