Is this thread also open for questions and clarification?
I have been a one-time victim of word-spinning in the past, but I have learned from my mistake and made corrections.

You’re not a victim, saying that implies you’re wrongly accused and take no responsibility for your actions. I see now why you would need a app to correct your grammar.


To avoid any future mistakes, I want to ask this question. When you talk about AI-generated text, what exactly is considered AI-generated? 
I use the Grammerly app, which I installed on my PC and use for research and writing; it helps me suggest possible sentence corrections, comma punctuation marks, and all that.
How long will you depend on this app to help you. Your English isn’t terrible, I understand you quite fine. I think you should work on your grammar, not just because you want to make posts here but for your personal development. This will help you interact with people better especially in a corporate environment.

Open to learning and also taking corrections thanks.
Grammarly is used to correct the grammar mistakes in the text written by yourself, you don't have to worry that you will be accused of plagiarism. On the other hand, chatbots like ChatGPT write texts by themselves so in that case it may be considered plagiarism if you try to pass it as your own.

I use the Grammerly app, which I installed on my PC and use for research and writing; it helps me suggest possible sentence corrections, comma punctuation marks, and all that. 
Let's take, for instance, my last comment below which was autocorrected with Grammerly: 
Since you are a student and you need money all the time to foot school bills and your personal expenses, if you have settled your time-pressing needs and have a little left over, that is what you are thinking of saving or investing in. You should always consider some things first before making any of these decisions: how long can you manage without those funds, and as you have said you hardly see side hustles to fetch you a small income, do you have sponsorship? If you are to invest this money, it will take some time before your investment can give you some profit, and sometimes you might be in need of funds before the exact time of your ROI. Or let's say you invested in crypto, and tomorrow when you need your capital to use it and settle some problems, you sometimes notice that the price at which you purchased it and the price at which you want to sell it are not the same, and because you are in need of money, you can sell in a hurry and record some loss instead of gain. For me, the best option here is for you to save, so you can get your hands on that cash whenever you need it to foot your bills. 

My original write-up without punctuation correction.

Buhari’s comments came as the CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, gave him an assurance that N200 and N500 currency notes taken out of circulation would be returned and widely circulated effectively,This was just as Katsina State Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Alhaji Ya’u Umar Gwajo-gwajo has called on Governors of Zamfara,and other states that dragged the federal government to the Supreme Court against banning the old N1000, N500 to withdraw, this caused suffering in the country when so many people might money but the can't withdraw, in a village were new is not well seculated I bring problem to them.

1) Brave Wallet. To make the web browser interesting for crypto users, the developers have integrated a non-custodial Brave Wallet into it. The wallet supports a large number of blockchains and resembles an improved version of MetaMask. It can be used both as a widget that has a compact size and is located on top of the tabs, and deployed as a standalone tab for full balance detail and access to all functions. Supporting more than a dozen different blockchains (including Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Solana, Polygon), Brave Wallet allows you to store all the assets of these networks. From the wallet, you can transfer tokens, buy new coins for fiat using Visa/Mastercard payment cards or through Ramp Network or Wyre payment services. In addition, it is possible to store NFTs and follow market trends by viewing graphs of changes in asset value. Brave Wallet supports multi-accounts, an unlimited number of wallets of any asset, as well as import from hardware wallets.

Bitcoin is the best online virtual cryptocurrency (thin air currency""donald trump""")) but it has some benefits which interests people to involve in bitcoin.


 ###User Autonomy. The primary draw of bitcoin for many users, and indeed one of the central tenets of cryptocurrencies more generally, is autonomy.
###Discretion.
 ###Peer-to-Peer focus
 ###Mobile Payments: we can easily pay payments through mobile within seconds or minutes.
###Accessibility: all classes of investors, traders, holders are accessible in bitcoin.

### Safe (Not Easy to Hack)
Bitcoin is protected by complex cryptographic passwords to keep it safe and is issued through the mining process, miners who use sophisticated computers to solve complex mathematical problems. This method is called Proof of Works and is a solution to the bitcoin network


 ###Elimination of Banking Fees: bitcoin reduces more banking transactions fees and increase speed of transactions.

 ###Very Low Transaction Fees for International Payments.
The fee for Bitcoin is very high, so we do not make transfers in Bitcoin.  There are more advantageous options in the crypto world that work with banks.  Bitcoin is just a good investment for me right now.

What do you all think about this, am I right or wrong?

1)In my example, the text size is sufficient because there are 82 tokens. And you need more than 50.
Writing a text by a person is obvious to US, which is why I took it as an example. In the topic, we are talking about the Detector seeing this too. And he couldn't.

2) 1000 symbols is too much. There are few such long posts on the forum, it is desirable that the Detector recognizes text with 250 characters.

The text size is "sufficient" enough for the detector to come to a decision, that obviously doesn't mean the decision must be correct.

You can just paste multiple posts that appear AI-generated to meet the 1000 character minimum.

If they won't unbank Coinbase and Binance, Bitcoin will be fine. If they do, the price will instantly plummet, adoption will either slow down significantly or turn negative. But it seems like the chance of them doing the latter are very low, since this is a very unofficial rumored crackdown on smaller businesses rather than a total ban on crypto.

A quick glance at crypto and NFT exchanges reveals that many new NFTs are being developed using sustainable and green technologies. In case you are not aware of this, let's just say that these are now known as Green NFTs.

Most NFTs are now minted on Proof-of-Work (PoW) blockchains a mining process that requires a large amount of computing power. Most NFTs are created on the Ethereum blockchain, and the Ethereum energy consumption index calculates that each NFT created on the Ethereum blockchain requires 223.85 kilowatt-hours of electricity. In fact, a single NFT transaction on the PoW Ethereum blockchain generates 124.86 kg of carbon dioxide.
 
Now comes the Green NFTs - called Impact NFTs. These Green NFTs are minted on Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchains or using a very low carbon mining process. This ensures that each token is eco-friendly and, in some cases, can be positive for the environment. In fact, the entire Ethereum blockchain is now shifting to a PoS mechanism to enable the creation of future NFTs with a much lower environmental footprint. Most companies in the crypto space are now encouraging the use of renewable energy sources to reduce carbon emissions. However, many crypto companies are still trying to find new spaces that will provide better solutions. Other technologies, such as Solana and Cardano and their token Impact, have taken the concept of NFT a few steps further, making it much more popular in a very short period of time.

Please do not rush to blame the forum members, otherwise we will get a witch hunt. I Googled a few AI detectors, but they can't determine EXACTLY who wrote the post after all. For example, in the screenshot there is a regular post in which a non-AI person clearly writes an opinion about another member. Such a text definitely belongs to a person, but the Detector thinks otherwise.

This example is clearly non-AI generated as it contains several spelling and punctuation errors. The result is inaccurate due to an inadequate sample size. For example,

versus:


This is the best one b/c it is made by the same company that made ChatGPT:

https://platform.openai.com/ai-text-classifier

It requires a minimum of 1,000 characters to give any sort of accurate results.

It is difficult to use the results of any detection system as concrete proof that text was generated using AI, however, a comparison of the user's posts is often a pretty good indicator. If some of a user's posts have perfect English while others are far from it, its safe to say the user is posting words that are not their own, at the very least.

Several of a user's posts returning likely AI generated by the AI Text Classifier substantiates the above conclusion.

I think the best answer will be in his next posts, where he’s going to adhere to forum rules and principles.

He shouldn't cease his prior habits out of fear of getting banned or tagged, he should just stop obsessing over trying to get merits because its not healthy. This is a weird behavior that causes people to do very strange things, rather than participate in the forum on an genuine level as a human being.

[...] he only omitted to mention the source dictated by his inexperience on the forums, not let's make drama, [...]
Plagiarism (presenting the work of others, as if it were your own) is not something to be taken lightly. It's a very serious offense, and one which mendace has both admitted to (maybe without realizing it) and failed to properly apologize for.

Maybe it's a language thing, but he seems to be confused about what the issue is.



yes of course plagiarism is not something to be taken lightly and it is a serious fact, and for this I agree with you, but let's be objective, did he copy an entire article? NO. Did he copy parts of articles taken from the web? YES .did he admit it?YES.for me it's more a matter of inexperience than maybe thinking he did it for notoriety or personal gain.This is not to defend plagiarists, but i don't find it right to punish without considering all the factors that caused it mendace's error.

Anyone that goes through his post history can see that there are clear examples of lightly paraphrased material written at a higher level of sophistication (language-wise) than his other posts.

I think the best way forward for him would be to take a less defensive stance and post something that shows that he really understands what the problem is, and how he intends to avoid it in the future.

I am taking this issue seriously, but I have been accused of plagiarism for using a chatbot. However, I explicitly expressed that I had only quoted a few pieces of the article without mentioning the source. I have already apologized for this. If quoting without attribution is not allowed by the regulations, I understand that now. However, I do not intend to discuss or defend myself further. After all, are we in a forum or a court of law?

Anyway, I checked some posts from users who have been on the forum for a long time, and, as in my case, the bot classified them as generated by A.I. So, is it plagiarism? (I'm sorry frankly1, I'm not accusing you, but only asking for a good cause. You make excellent posts, and I respect your work.)

It happens that I post some pieces from articles on the net to be able to answer, if this is a problem I will try to argue better but I can guarantee that I am not or make use of chatbots.  This is an inconvenience that I honestly didn't think about, but English is not my native language and so I was hoping it would be more understandable that way.  Excuse me.
Even if it is true your posts aren’t AI generated, you just admitted to plagiarism. @ Solosanz was right. Its surprising you are ignorant of the forum rules, the consequence of plagiarism is much higher than using ChatGPT to make posts. I’m curious how the mods will handle this case.
I'm not stupid and I haven't admitted any plagiarism.  You're accusing me of something you can only say you've found traces of, but I've already given my explanation.  Is this a support forum or a judicial court?  I don't understand why you are judging me, isn't it perhaps the goal of a forum to give answers?  Where do you inform yourself?  personally I have always read news on sites and many times I see that they are the same news written the same because they are copied, that's why you have noticed this but I NEVER ADMITTED to having used a chatbot.





Mendace is a very active, competent and helpful member of the Italian community. He's well connected in the Italian bitcoin community, even outside the forum.
This is only to demonstrate he is not someone who needs the forum to grow his nickname.
I read all the accusation and while I tend to stay as much neutral as I could, I would say his way of writing articles could lead to plagiarism accusations, even if the examples posted above wouldn't be resolutive in my opinion.

Mendace already told us he is going to change the way he is writing his posts, adding sources to quotation (I am adding as a suggestions, thinking at the above posted examples) and taking a more personal interpretation of what he reads in the internet.

I hope this is the result of his relatively "inexperience" on the forum issues and rules, but I am confident his posting habits will quickly improve.
