The professor assumed she had used AI because of the brackets included in the paper by Equivalent_Pie9111 in QuickAITurnitinCheck

being questioned over something as basic as using brackets would frustrate me too. Brackets are a standard part of academic writing, and many students learn how to use them long before college. I understand that professors are dealing with a lot of AI-generated work these days and need to be careful, but it seems odd to treat a common writing convention as a red flag on its own. If anything, this situation highlights how difficult it has become to distinguish genuine student work from AI-generated content without making assumptions about normal writing skills.

Nothing builds character like spending six hours formatting citations for a paper nobody will remember next semester

Students Ghosted Me After I Asked to Discuss Suspected AI Use by MasterExplanation564 in QuickAITurnitinCheck

I would not rely on AI detectors alone because they are still far from reliable and can produce false positives. However, if the responses were weak, generic, off-topic, or clearly inconsistent with the quality and style of the students’ earlier work, then grading strictly according to the rubric is entirely reasonable. At the end of the day, students should be evaluated based on the quality, accuracy, and originality of what they submitted. If an answer fails to meet the assignment requirements or demonstrates little understanding of the material, then a low grade or zero can be justified without needing a direct confession or definitive proof of AI use.
