The fact that AI-generated content is so difficult to detect suggests that progress in this field has been extremely rapid. It is remarkable how quickly advances are being made in this space. I have heard that some news outlets are already using AI-generated content in their publications, and it is easy to imagine that in a few years they will be so capable that they can produce content that is indistinguishable from real human writing.
So would it make sense to try to detect AI-generated content with an AI classification model? The training data for such a model would need to include both an AI-generated dataset and examples of human-generated content. And then train a classification algorithm to separate AI-generated content from human-generated one. Would that be possible?
