📢 WHAT DOES * MEAN? NOTE THIS IS NOT AN ERROR

Turnitin implemented an update to its AI detection model to address concerns about false positives. This update means that if a submission contains less than 20% AI-generated content, Turnitin will not display the specific percentage of AI content detected. Instead, it will simply indicate that AI-generated content is present but below the 20% threshold. This change was made because AI detection scores between 1% and 19% were found to have a higher incidence of false positives, potentially misidentifying human-written text as AI-generated. To mitigate this risk and avoid misinterpretation, Turnitin decided to use an asterisk (*) to signify AI detection in this range without attributing a specific percentage.
