‘But there is a difference between recognising AI use and proving its use. So I tried an experiment. … I received 122 paper submissions. Of those, the Trojan horse easily identified 33 AI-generated papers. I sent these stats to all the students and gave them the opportunity to admit to using AI before they were locked into failing the class. Another 14 outed themselves. In other words, nearly 39% of the submissions were at least partially written by AI.‘

    I sometimes use different dilimiters [you know, like "(" {or also "[" or "(" (as they are used in programming -- since the em dash is essentially one of these, just with the added benefit of giving you a breath for thinking --)}].
