Incident 5721 Report
University Student Reportedly Received Zero After Turnitin AI Detector Flagged Essay

2023-07-24

An anonymized university student said Turnitin’s AI detector flagged 67% of an essay as AI-generated, despite the student claiming to have written the assignment by hand. The student reportedly received a zero and said attempts to appeal to the professor, department head, and Turnitin support had not resolved the accusation.
