Incident 5721 Report
Alleged False Accusation of AI-Generated Essay by Turnitin

2023-07-24

A student was allegedly falsely accused of using AI to generate an essay assignment based on Turnitin's AI detector. The student, who claims to have written the essay by hand, also claims to have received a zero for the assignment. Despite multiple appeals to the professor, department head, and Turnitin support, no resolution seems to have been reached. The student claimed to be considering taking the issue to local news networks if the grade would come to harm their final standing.
