"Plagiarism detection company claims LLM conditions plagiarism according to their detector."
I wonder how many student written essays also contain 'plagiarism' according to their tool.
Probably very few. The bias for these companies is in false negatives, not false positives, since false positives create controversy when students appeal a ruling.
The bias here was certainly to come up with a lot of false positives for advertising; kinda like anti-virus companies do it.
100% iirc, there are only so many ways to write about how the blue curtains indicate the character is feeling depressed or something.
