Fordham AI Tools
The following AI tools are enabled in Fordham applications:
Data Classification
For information about the difference between sensitive, protected, and public data please visit Fordham's Data Classification Guidelines.
For information about Fordham's AI Policy please visit AI Vision Committee Recommendations.
AI Detection Tools
Currently, there is no recommended detection tool with overwhelming accuracy. Some even produce false positives. Please do not rely on any detection tool alone.
Since the announcement of ChatGPT an industry of GAI detection tools has also been booming. Hundreds - and growing - products claim to be able to differentiate between a GAI text from that of a human being with a various level of accuracy. Yet none seem to be conclusive.
Caution is advised in testing and experimenting with these tools, as in several cases quite a few of them marked a clearly human generated text as that of a GAI and vice versa. Such mistakes could have potential ethical and legal ramifications. Much research and experimentation is needed to these tools as this industry is still in its development.
