Does Apple Intelligence get detected by an AI Content Detector?

Science & Technology


Introduction

In a recent experiment, I decided to test if content generated by Apple Intelligence would be flagged as AI-generated by an AI content detector. For the case study, I used an essay I wrote about the mineral springs in Iowa National Park on October 20, 2023. Below, I detail the steps I took to analyze the text through various AI tools and how the results differed.

Initial Scan

I began by pasting my original essay into the AI content detector. The scan revealed a mere 4% chance that the text was AI-generated, showing a 96% human-written score. Given this outcome, any teacher reviewing my work would likely have no concerns regarding its authenticity.

Using Proofreading Tools

Next, I utilized the proofreading function to check the grammar and overall quality of my essay. The proofreading didn't significantly alter the character count. After scanning the proofread version, the AI detector showed a 7% chance of AI authorship, with a 93% human-written score. Despite the slight increase in AI metrics, I still felt confident that my essay was predominantly human-generated.

Exploring Rewrite Options

Next, I experimented with the rewrite function, which substantially alters the text to improve its quality. As anticipated, the results indicated a shift, with the essay showing 11% mixed and 89% AI-generated content. This worried me since I could identify several AI characteristics in the revised version.

Adjusting Style and Tone

I then tried the friendly text function, which aims to make the language more approachable. Unfortunately, this version of the essay ended up being flagged as 100% AI-generated. I recognized signs of artificial intelligence in the way the text was structured and presented. Similarly, when I used the professional tone feature, the detector again indicated a 100% AI result.

Conciseness and Summarization

Continuing my tests, I used the concise function to shorten the essay. It produced another 100% AI-generated score, confirming that the changes made by this tool were unmistakably linked to AI. Following this, I attempted the summary function to condense the content further. Unsurprisingly, this too returned a 100% AI-detection score.

Note-Taking Features

To explore other functionalities, I took my essay and converted it into bullet points. The AI detector indicated 76% AI-generated and 24% human-written. This result showed promise for note-taking purposes but indicated modifications were still necessary for higher authenticity.

Conclusion and Recommendations

Ultimately, based on my experimentation with Apple Intelligence, I would recommend using the proofreading function alone for academic essays. This function proved to keep human metrics high and AI detection low. For note-taking, features that summarize or list information may be beneficial but should be treated carefully to avoid high AI descriptors.

I would advise against relying on rewriting, friendly, or professional features for essays, as these tools significantly increased the likelihood of AI detection.
