Before we understand why AI detectors fail, let’s lay some groundwork. AI content detection is all about finding patterns. Why? Simply because when a human writes, they blend random thoughts into meaningful sentences. There is no set pattern. Some sentences can be too long to read, and some can be short.

This is the exact opposite of how an AI thinks and writes. There is minimal randomness, and the text is very structured. There may also be repetition of ideas or words. And the choice of words itself may be too robotic to read. AI content detectors take all this into account. They look for such patterns to distinguish between human-written and AI-generated content.

Got a new MacBook Pro but you’re worried about filling up the drive? Apple’s notebooks are notoriously difficult to upgrade, but there are other ways of increasing your available space at the cost of speed.

If you try to visit a website and see a “500 Internal Server Error” message, it means something has gone wrong with the website. This isn’t a problem with your browser, your computer, or your internet connection. It’s a problem with the site you’re trying to visit.

Sometimes when you import data or work with others on a spreadsheet, data can get messy. You may have duplicates, inconsistent data, or extra spaces. Google Sheets offers a few features to help you clean up your data.

Streaming may be the most convenient way to watch most movies, but it doesn’t hurt to have a physical copy of your movies or home videos as a fallback. If you want to make a backup copy of your movie collection, or just burn a playable DVD of your own videos, it’s pretty easy — and free.

If you’re going to be away for a few hours or on vacation for several days, you can set up an Out of Office message in Google Calendar. This automatically declines new meeting invitations and shows others that you’ll be out.

With Microsoft Excel’s UPPER , LOWER , and PROPER functions, you can capitalize your text as well as turn your text to lowercase or proper case. You can specify your text as a cell reference or directly in the function.
