A US university student has posted on Reddit that their $45,000 (about £36,000) annual scholarship may be revoked after an AI detection tool allegedly flagged their senior thesis as being largely AI-generated. The student says the decision, made in New York, has led to academic suspension proceedings and accusations of misconduct over a 30-page dissertation they insist was written entirely by themselves.
The post, shared in a Reddit advice forum, describes a situation at a private university where automated software reportedly assigned a '98% probability AI-generated' label to the student's final-year thesis.
