FAQ
What is GPTZero?
GPTZero is the leading AI detector for checking whether a document was written by a large language model such as
ChatGPT. GPTZero detects AI on sentence, paragraph, and document level. Our model was trained on a large, diverse
corpus of human-written and AI-generated text, with a focus on English prose. To date, GPTZero has served over 2.5
million users around the world, and works with over 100 organizations in education, hiring, publishing, legal, and more.

When should I use GPTZero?

Our users have seen the use of AI-generated text proliferate into education, certification, hiring and recruitment, social
writing platforms, disinformation, and beyond. We've created GPTZero as a tool to highlight the possible use of AI in
writing text. In particular, we focus on classifying AI use in prose. Overall, our classifier is intended to be used to flag
situations in which a conversation can be started (for example, between educators and students) to drive further inquiry
and spread awareness of the risks of using AI in written work.

Does GPTZero only detect ChatGPT outputs?

No, GPTZero works robustly across a range of AI language models, including but not limited to ChatGPT, GPT-4, GPT-3,
GPT-2, LLaMA, and AI services based on those models.

What are the limitations of the classifier?

The nature of AI-generated content is changing constantly. As such, these results should not be used to punish students.
We recommend educators to use our behind-the-scene Writing Reports as part of a holistic assessment of student work.
There always exist edge cases with both instances where AI is classified as human, and human is classified as AI. Instead,
we recommend educators take approaches that give students the opportunity to demonstrate their understanding in
a controlled environment and craft assignments that cannot be solved with AI. Our classifier is not trained to identify
AI-generated text after it has been heavily modified after generation (although we estimate this is a minority of the
uses for AI-generation at the moment). Currently, our classifier can sometimes flag other machine-generated or highly
procedural text as AI-generated, and as such, should be used on more descriptive portions of text.

I'm an educator who has found AI-generated text by my students. What do I do?
Firstly, at GPTZero, we don't believe that any AI detector is perfect. There always exist edge cases with both instances
where AI is classified as human, and human is classified as AI. Nonetheless, we recommend that educators can do the
following when they get a positive detection:

Ask students to demonstrate their understanding in a controlled environment, whether that is through an in-person
assessment, or through an editor that can track their edit history (for instance, using our Writing Reports through
Google Docs). Check out our list of several recommendations on types of assignments that are difficult to solve with
AI.
Ask the student if they can produce artifacts of their writing process, whether it is drafts, revision histories, or
brainstorming notes. For example, if the editor they used to write the text has an edit history (such as Google Docs),
and it was typed out with several edits over a reasonable period of time, it is likely the student work is authentic. You can
use GPTZero's Writing Reports to replay the student's writing process, and view signals that indicate the authenticity
of the work.
See if there is a history of AI-generated text in the student's work. We recommend looking for a long-term pattern
of AI use, as opposed to a single instance, in order to determine whether the student is using AI.

critique 2.docx
The short story "Love in the Cornhusk" by Aida Rivera-Ford, published in the 1950s, is about a lady named Tinang,
a former domestic worker, visits her former employer, Señora, with her baby in hopes of inviting her to be one
of the child's godmothers. The Señora offers clothes and help considering Tinang's struggles. During the visit,
Tinang learns of a letter waiting for her at the local drugstore. Later, she finds out it's a love letter from her past
lover, Amado, who was a tractor driver. The letter reveals Amado's inability to return due to his mother's illness
and his hopes for their future. Overwhelmed with feelings, Tinang reminisces about her old life. The tale ends
with Tinang getting worried because she realizes her baby was left unattended among the cornhusks. This shows
how hard her life is right now. This narrative tackles concepts of Marxism by Karl Marx such as social class, labor
force, and capitalism. This opens itself to a Marxist critique analyzing socio-economic inequalities, alienation, and
reproduction of labor.

The difference between Tinang's life as a domestic helper and her current struggles as a mother and wife reflec-
ts the Marxist concept of socio-economic inequality. The story happens in a setting where class differences are
evident, portraying remnants of the Philippines' long history of colonization where a class structure privileged
Spanish-descents. For instance, the Señora lives a comfortable life, shown by the porch, clothes, scent and ap-
pearance, in contrast Tinang, experiences the hardships of the working class, walking through mud, burdened by
a baby, and the difficulties of her married life. Furthermore, the Señora being able to provide dresses and blankets
for Tinang suggests that economic status determines a person's access to comfort and resources. The letter from
Amado also talks about how financial factors affects personal relationships. Amado's choice to leave Tinang for
better opportunities to help his sick mother shows how financial issues can change personal relationships. The
story shows clearly how different classes can affect lives and relationships, and it makes us think about how old
class systems from colonial times still impact people. The story effectively underscores socio-economic inequality
and their impacts on lives and relationships and serves as a reflection on the enduring legacy of a colonial class
hierarchy.

The Marxist concept of alienation is vividly portrayed in Tinang's narrative. Alienation is the surrender of control
and separation from a crucial aspect of oneself. It is generally described as four types: the product of labor, the
process of labor, others, and self (Horowitz, 2010). The depiction of Tinang's muddy shoes and appearance during
her visit to the Señora symbolizes her physical and symbolic alienation from the privileged lifestyle. Additionally,
while Marx primarily focused on industrial labor, the principles of alienation can be applied to other forms like
domestic work. Tinang was part of the labor force serving the privileged class represented by the Señora. They
engage in tasks that contribute to the wellbeing of the household they serve but do not have ownership over the
products of their labor. The results of their work are benefited by their superiors. This is further shown when she
noticed the waling-waling and was told that the “maid” will come over to do it. This perception devalues individual
workers, like Tinang, as replaceable in their roles, further alienating them from the specific products they once
nurtured.

Another notable but subtle part mentioned in the story is when the Señora points out Tinang looking like a
Bagobo. Although it is treated as a light-hearted joke, this could potentially convey that looking like a Bagobo is
less-than-desirable. By perpetuating stereotypes and reinforcing preconceived judgments grounded in ethnicity,
such actions alienate individuals. Similarly, the offer to read the letter for Tinang indicates a potential communica-
tion barrier. The assumption that she might be illiterate, reflects prejudice on the part of the drugstore attendant.
This misunderstanding contributes to a sense of being alienated from others who may hold misconceptions about
her abilities. In Tinang's narrative, the Marxist concept of alienation is evident, as she experiences a surrender of
control over the products of her labor. This surrender manifests through two main aspects: the devaluation of
individual contributions and subtle instances of ethnic and communicative alienation.

Implicitly, Tinang's visit to the Señora may highlight the reproductive aspects of her role in society; the story has
emphasized Tinang's role as a mother:she adjusts her baby's cap, and her interactions with the Señora revolve
around the child. The baby, being the focal point of Tinang's visit, serves as a symbolic representation of the future
labor force. Also, the Señora's commentary on Tinang's pregnancy where she is suggesting
