By now you've likely seen that AI bypasser detection is available if you have Turnitin's AI writing detection feature. But what exactly does that mean? AI text that has been revised by AI is a problem that that is plaguing educators. When students make the choice to do this using an AI bypasser, the reason is ONLY because they are seeking to evade detection.

As always, when an AI writing score is generated, it is only one data reference point. A conversation is required with the student to determine if this usage was an attempt to cover up a skills defiicit or perhaps their intention was to evade AI detectors. 

Turnitin's Teaching and Learning Innovations team has created a new resource to help you keep current and figure out the best ways to address this new wrinkle in the AI landscape: Conversation starters to discuss AI bypassers with students.

A quick breakdown for you to get the most of this new feature:
Page 1: What are AI bypassers and AI paraphrasers and what are possible legitimate uses 
Page 2: A screenshot and brief explanation of how the score is different, but the workflow is not ... plus some tips on how to talk to students about writing choices and academic integrity
Page 3: A "menu" of conversation starters that are arranged in no particular order; simply choose the ones that seem to fit the situation you need to address.
