The rise in popularity of AI tools like ChatGPT has led to people using them for all types of tasks, especially students using them to complete assignments and workers using them to do their work for them.
Many people want to use these AI tools without proper attribution and “bypass” detection systems.
Let’s understand how this works in more detail now.
What is Bypass GPT?
First, let’s break this down into its two parts.
GPT means “Generative pre-trained transformers” and is basically a type of Large Language Model. GPT became famous because of OpenAI’s ChatGPT (a user interface where you can chat with a GPT)
ChatGPT is a type of artificial intelligence model that has been trained to generate human-like text by understanding and processing language.
Easy to understand?
Not really I get it, but most of us know what it is to use ChatGPT at this point. You ask for some piece of text/media to be generated and it produces it for you.
The idea of Bypass means to avoid detection from an AI content detection tool. Many, many people are using tools like ChatGPT to generate their homework or work for them. For this reason, tools like Winston AI have been created to detect if a text was written by a human or an AI tool.
To bypass an AI content detection tool then is to use another AI tool to rewrite your text so that it doesn’t appear as AI-generated in AI content detection tools.
Let’s Test Out an AI content Detection Tool First
So, in order to learn about how bypass GPT works, we first must learn about AI content detection.
Our tool Winston AI has a 99.98% accuracy rate when it comes to detecting AI content.
To put it to the test, let me create a piece of text with ChatGPT.
Next, I will copy the text into our AI content detection app and test the text for AI content.
As you can see from the right section of the image above, the result was conclusively 0% human. Correct!
What are GPTs? BypassGPT in the OpenAI GPT store
So the first problem that we encounter is that it is not clear which is the real BypassGPT.
You can use bypassGPT as part of Open AI’s platform ChatGPT but they also have their own website where you can also use it.
GPTs ( apart from meaning “Generative pre-trained transformers”) are also custom versions of ChatGPT. You can give the chatbot custom knowledge and custom prompting to give different results than the general-purpose version of ChatGPT.
Anyone can create a custom GPT and use it (or share it to a wider audience) for a specific purpose.
One such purpose is to bypass AI content detection tools.
Let’s look at the BypassGPT version that is on the Open AI platform.
To use the tool, all you need to do is copy your in text and the tool will rewrite your text for you.
I then got my result and tested this new text with our AI content detection tool.
The result of this test also gave a 0% human written score in Winston AI. This makes the tool a bit pointless but I guess there are AI content detection tools that are less accurate and you may be able to bypass those ones.
It is important to note that Open AI does not like other companies using “GPT” in their name.
Let’s look at the Bypass GPT website now
BypassGPT AI – Does it Work?
BypassGPT AI is a tool that attempts to “humanize” text. The idea of “humanizing” a text is a bit of a misnomer. The idea is not really to make the text sound more human, but rather to avoid detection with an AI content detecting tool.
These tools generally work by changing the word order of the sentences in an attempt to catch out the algorithms of AI detection tools. There are quite a few AI content detection tools on the market like Winston AI, Turnitiin and Copyleaks, each with different systems of detecting AI generated content.
We tested out Bypass GPT to see if it could bypass our AI content detection tool.
Now, let me paste in this “humanized” text into our tool to see if it bypasses our detection algorithm:
As you can see the rewritten tool also failed to bypass our AI detection tool. This definitely questions the efficacy of tools like BypassGPT.
Whether this works on other AI detection tools depends on many factors. There are many AI content detection tools out there that do not keep up to date with the latest models released.
Ethical Considerations of Using BypassGPT
While tools like BypassGPT may seem tempting, it’s crucial to consider the ethical implications of their use. Attempting to deceive AI detection systems raises questions about academic integrity and professional ethics.
What is the point of exams when students use AI tools to write their assignments?
Educational institutions need to use AI content detectors (along with other methods) to maintain standards of originality and to ensure that students and employees are developing critical thinking and writing skills.
It’s more beneficial to focus on understanding how to use AI tools responsibly and transparently, in line with institutional policies and ethical guidelines.
Final Thoughts
Using a tool like BypassGPT is pointless if your educational institute/employer is using an accurate AI content detection tool like Winston AI.
You should be clear and honest that you are using AI. There are certain situations where it may be perfectly acceptable to use AI (like a spelling corrector) and other situations where it is not acceptable.
We are in a world where AI generated text exists and we must update policies/resources to keep up with this great technological change.
