So, if the decision from Pangram determined, on every assignment, if you would be expelled from university for plagiarism, would that be acceptable to you regardless of how you actually did the work?
replyIf you would not be okay with that, what level of consequence would be acceptable for the output from this tool?
That’s a different point.
replyI’d want detectors to be as accurate as possible, false positives of 1 in 10000 seems like a good starting point. I believe their results have been independently tested.
And as a separate matter, any tool for evaluating students should be applied fairly, safely, and with adequate human review and due process.
You need good tools and good oversight.
Due process should never just become a checkbox item. To deal with lives and livelihoods justly, you need appeal pathways and meaningful liability exposure for the processors.
replyPlagiarism and cheating sucks for everyone. Worth solving.
