Have you had any of your work falsely detected as being generated by AI?


And also, if you have? What did you do? Did you have to prove your innocence? And if you did, how did you do that?

I am particularly interested in this with regard to academic work, but also in general would be interested to hear people’s experiences!

Saw this post a few days ago on Reddit about their game getting rejected by Steam (the main platform studios publish their games on for PC) for falsely detecting A.I. assets. A few people in the comments chimed in and said they had similar experiences as well:

"We are a small indie studio publishing our first game on Steam. Today we got hit with the dreaded message "Your app appears to contain art assets generated by artificial intelligence that may be relying on copyrighted material owned by third parties" review from the Steam team - even though we have no AI assets at all and all of our assets were hand drawn/sculpted by our artists."[1]

I wrote a blog post and submitted it to HN yesterday. At first the upvotes were coming in quickly and it even got to the front page, but then some comments started saying that it's '100% written by AI' and it ended up being flagged. I wrote the entire thing with no use of AI, and only used chatgpt to proofread it.

I think it's amusing how people are paranoid about wasting time reading something that was generated by AI, and I can relate to it. But it was strange seeing how sure some people were that it was written by AI, when in fact it wasn't.
