Francis Abernathy is just like: "I had sex with my best friend on my other friend's funeral and fell in love with him. Then I almost had sex with another close friend, who I constantly flirt with, only to have a real sex afterwards with my best friend who interrupted us. I also made out with a twin sister of my best friend and dream about making out with a Homer fucker, who is a love of her life. Oh, and I practice the bacchanal ceremony on Friday nights."

so the tricky thing with this is that most of the ai detectors out there (at least the free ones that i use) have a fairly low accuracy rate. you can get a ton of false positives and different ones will often disagree with each other, so i find them to be deeply untrustworthy. i feel like they can be helpful if like......the student REALLY isn't subtle about it and they've literally just copy-pasted the whole thing into a word processor and submitted it as their own work (which I HAVE seen......)

the other unfortunate part of this is that the institutions i work at (and i suspect the us education system in general) have not really been able to come up with a systematic way to deal with this issue so (surprise, surprise) it falls upon the underpaid faculty like yours truly to figure out what to do.

also, this semester was really the first time i had to deal with students submitting ai papers (at least as far as i know) so i'm honestly still trying to figure out how to deal with it going forward (since it will obviously continue to be an issue thanks for fucking NOTHING sam altman and all you silicon valley ai dipshits............)

ANYWAY, how do i tell if a paper was written by AI? first of all, it will NOT sound like the student's writing style at all. chatgpt and other language models have a very distinctive writing style/voice which i would characterize as like corporate, customer service voice but in text form. it's bland, it's general, and it can't talk about anything with any level of specificity. when you're teaching a student how to write, you grow familiar with their distinctive voice as a writer pretty quickly, and so, if you're paying attention, you can usually tell when there's something off.

another thing is, if it's a paper with cited research sources, the sources might either NOT EXIST when you go to look for them or they will mostly be open access (which is fine but like.....if you're a student at a university, you will definitely have access to databases that the university library pays for so like.........come on.)

another thing i've been told anecdotally and which seems to align with my experience is that most ai papers will NOT directly quote sources since a lot of these ai companies are deathly afraid of being accused of plagiarism lmao. i've also heard of ai papers where they would get the ENTIRE plot of a published story wrong and INVENT CHARACTERS who weren't in the original story!

tbh though the best way i've found to try and detect ai papers is by literally opening up chatgpt and putting the essay topic through it to see what it comes up with. it won't come up with EXACTLY THE SAME paper, BUT it will, often, come up with something VERY SIMILAR using extremely similar language and it may even be structured the same way and use the same sources.

again, part of what makes this so fucking annoying is that, as of now, there's no way to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that an essay is ai-generated if the student doesn't own up to it, but, honestly, you just KNOW.

_______________________________________________________

The next gilded frame holds the most bored, vacant-looking Malfoy Hermione has ever seen. The man is fully occupied with the spread of delicacies filling the table before him; wine dribbles down his ash-blonde beard. He doesn’t seem to notice the passers by.

There’s a portrait of a Malfoy politician, then some sort of Malfoy general with a decorated uniform.

Hermione gasps when she notices—the military Malfoy has three women sitting in the corner of his portrait, looking on with the doting devotion of a… perhaps they’re daughters? No, the ages are wrong. 

They must all be wives.

The next ten portraits feature Malfoys with multiple female partners, and even a few males in the mix.

Assuming pureblood early marriage customs have remained constant, Hermione measures approximately two hundred years in the generations.

This anchor in time quickens her pulse.

That would put her somewhere around the 2200s! 

But perhaps more fascinatingly, the portraits measure a marked physical shift in the generation after Draco’s son.

The heirs begin to have broader shoulders. They’re taller, with thicker necks and more defined musculature.

Something happened in her generation—something that precipitated the biological descent into feral madness that she’s confronted by this very moment.

A pungent smell assaults her as she floats into the manor’s gray, austere dining hall.

There’s a small fountain flaunting the contemporary currency with a melodic trickle.

But wait—!

A snow-blonde head catches her eye and confusion jolts her body.

That can’t be him! 

How has he gotten here?

Hermione’s heart stops for a full beat when Malfoy turns around.

“Draco!” she cries.
