This helps maintain academic integrity standards while ensuring fair treatment for students. However, it&#8217;s important to note that the percentage provided is not a conclusive measure of misconduct and should not be used punitively. Instead, instructors should use the indicated percentage to inform their decisions on how to handle work that may have been assisted by AI writing tools like ChatGPT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How it works<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-larger-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column columns-no-bottom-margin is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Turnitin&#8217;s own AI only identifies content that it is 98% confident was not produced by a human but rather AI-generated.
