This is becoming a huge problem for international students. I'm from China, and English is my second language. I work really hard on my papers—I go to the writing center, I have tutors, I spend hours editing. But my writing is still more straightforward and 'correct' than a native speaker's because I'm following grammar rules carefully. Multiple times now, my papers have been flagged by AI writing detector tools as 'potentially AI-generated.' One professor believed me when I showed my drafts. Another gave me a zero and I had to go through a whole academic integrity hearing to clear my name. Research shows detectors are biased against non-native writers . It's not fair that we're being punished for writing clearly. Has anyone else dealt with this? How do you protect yourself? I'm thinking of recording myself writing just to have proof.
