My daughter’s 7th grade work is 80% flagged as AI. She is a very good writer, it’s interesting to see how poorly this will go.

Obviously we will go back to in class writing.

She should run it through ai to rewrite in a way so another ai doesn't detect it was written by ai.

Right, I thought this was just an arms race for tools that can generate output to fool other tools.

I've heard some students are concerned that any text submitted to an AI-detector is automatically added to training sets and therefore will eventually will be flagged as AI.

Well, that is how AI works.
