With so many places using artificial intelligence these days, it’s no wonder more and more college campuses are starting to use an AI Detector tool in their classroom, but what about the admissions part of your college application? Do college admissions use an AI Detector tool when evaluating your application to their campus? You can’t be sure, which is why this article takes the time to dive into this topic and share findings and opinions on the matter with you. Continue reading to learn more about how college admissions can use AI Detector tools during their evaluation process. Over 40% of college students admit to using some form of artificial intelligence in their coursework . With a number that high, you can only assume that these language models are also being used in the admission process, specifically with essays or answering difficult questions. GPT systems can easily answer the harder questions for you; all you have to do is insert the question and it can draft up the complete answer in minutes. This will leave the student to just copy and paste or type up the answer in the coursework section for their college work or within the admissions paperwork. Since colleges have had students self-proclaimed that they use AI language models to complete their coursework, more colleges have started to use AI Detector tools, but do they use them within the admissions department? The answer is yes, but the AI policies will vary from college to college. Often, admissions officers will use some sort of artificial intelligence to evaluate admissions paperwork to ensure there is a fair advantage from student to student. Colleges don’t want people cheating the system, so they must use up-to-date technology to evaluate the hundreds, if not thousands, of applications received yearly. There are a mixture of things admission officers will use to evaluate the application to attend their college: AI software Human evaluation AI Detector tools It’s best for students to evaluate the policies regarding the usage of artificial intelligence within the admissions department before submitting any application that utilizes this technology. Since there are hundreds of applications, and in some instances thousands of applications, to consider each year, the admissions department wants to make sure that there is a fair and reasonable expectation for each applicant. Not every applicant to the college can use or is aware of using AI tools for the admission process. This means that you must have some policies in place and maintain some level of integrity to ensure that each student is fairly evaluated based on their actual skillsets and experiences. There are other reasons why the admissions department at the college that you’ve applied to will use AI Detector tools, among other AI technology, during the evaluation process. As noted, one of the biggest reasons these college admissions departments cite using AI detector tools and upgrading their AI policies each year is to prevent unfair advantages. Sometimes, a tech-savvy student can use AI tools to write the best essays, whereas a student who doesn’t have the best tech skills or access to these AI tools may not be able to write a perfect essay. Face it: writing essays is a nightmare for most people. An AI content creator can write an essay for your college admissions paperwork within seconds, which could potentially give you the upper hand over someone else who wrote their essay from scratch. This is something that the college admissions officers are aware of so they are favorable to using AI Detector tools to evaluate the essay text before reading through it to determine if it makes the cut for the student being admitted into the college or not. Another reason why some college admissions use an AI Detector tool is to maintain academic integrity. This is something that most colleges push: integrity! They want their students to be authentic and true to themselves and others. This means that students shouldn’t use AI tools to do their work for them or to complete admissions essays for them. Many campuses take pride in having one of their six fundamental values being integrity. This is another reason why college admissions use an AI Detector tool. This evaluation will keep each student honest and doing their best work. One of the best ways a college admissions department can check for AI-generated essays is to use an AI detector tool. These tools can evaluate the content input into their system based on perplexity data, burstiness data and other criteria such as word usage and repetitive patterns found within the content. If an essay uses too many patterns and similar sentence structures, the AI Detector tool will tell the admissions department head that the essay is more than likely written by artificial intelligence. Once the admissions department receives the report back, which takes mere seconds, the officer can determine what they want to do with the application. In most cases, if the admissions department has an AI content policy and the essay was found to be written by artificial intelligence, then the application will go to the denied pile. Other times, the college admissions department may review the essay to confirm that it appears to be AI-generated. Since AI Detector tools can be glitchy, it’s up to the college admissions department to determine what percentage of supposed AI content they will allow within the essay as it relates to an AI Detector tool’s evaluation. There are many admissions departments that refuse to let any percent of AI be allowed, while others give a little wiggle room, knowing that these detection models can be incorrect at times. When it comes to applying to colleges or universities, you will want to read their policies regarding AI usage on their website. This will ensure you’re following their rules and not having your essay rejected, thus preventing you from attending the college of your choice due to technical issues.

( MENAFN - The Conversation) The original excitement about the influence of artificial intelligence (AI) on developed countries is shifting toward how AI might influence developing nations. The Economist recently ran a cover story extolling the potential of AI to help lower-income countries in sectors such as education, healthcare and agriculture; however, various commentators have expressed concerns that AI could cause a number of harms in the Global South. At the root of this issue runs a frequent concern with how data is collected, stored and used – and responsibly reused for purposes other than it was initially collected for. Data collected from satellite imagery and sensors can be reused to monitor deforestation, air and water quality, and the impact of climate change . Telco or social media data can be reused for disaster response to track people's movements, identify areas that need urgent assistance and coordinate relief efforts more effectively. Responsible reuse of public and private data can also break down silos. Access to mobile phone data has been reused to foster collaboration and innovation, like harmonising access to public transport and ride-sharing initiatives to limit travel time and reduce car use. Open contracting data was used to improve access to HIV and tuberculosis medicine in Moldova, a country that has one of the highest patient rates in Europe. But reuse carries its own risks, especially to user privacy and security. Promoting the responsible reuse of data requires addressing power imbalances in the data ecology that disempower key stakeholders and undermine trust in data management practices. These imbalances may be particularly pernicious in the Global South . Addressing them requires broadening notions of consent beyond current individualised approaches in favour of what we term a social licence for reuse. There are a number of imbalances in power and influence among different stakeholders in the data ecology. Larger players or those from more affluent regions have bigger budgets and more expertise, plus more computational power, to access and work with data. These imbalances take on particular significance when data is repurposed. In such cases, original data subjects frequently lack the ability to influence or even become aware of secondary uses, and data could be used in ways that harm them or that disproportionately benefit the few. These risks are particularly pronounced in developing countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, due in part to power imbalances between governments and companies in the Global South and North. But vast asymmetries also exist within Global South countries themselves, requiring close attention to the way data is collected, used and reused by governments that profess to speak on behalf of the people. In theory, consent offers a mechanism to reduce power imbalances. In reality, existing consent mechanisms are limited and, in many respects, archaic, based on binary distinctions – typically presented in check-the-box forms that most websites use to ask you to register for marketing e-mails – that fail to appreciate the nuance and context-sensitive nature of data reuse. Consent today generally means individual consent, a notion that overlooks the broader needs of communities and groups. While we understand the need to safeguard information about an individual such as, say, their health status, this information can help address or even prevent societal health crises. Individualised notions of consent fail to consider the potential public good of reusing individual data responsibly. This makes them particularly problematic in societies that have more collective orientations, where prioritising individual choices could disrupt the social fabric. The notion of a social licence, which has its roots in the 1990s within the extractive industries , refers to the collective acceptance of an activity, such as data reuse, based on its perceived alignment with community values and interests. Social licences go beyond the priorities of individuals and help balance the risks of data misuse and missed use (for example, the risks of violating privacy vs. neglecting to use private data for public good). Social licences permit a broader notion of consent that is dynamic, multifaceted and context-sensitive. Policymakers, citizens, health providers, think tanks, interest groups and private industry must accept the concept of a social licence before it can be established. The goal for all stakeholders is to establish widespread consensus on community norms and an acceptable balance of social risk and opportunity. Community engagement can create a consensus-based foundation for preferences and expectations concerning data reuse. Engagement could take place via dedicated“data assemblies” or community deliberations about data reuse for particular purposes under particular conditions. The process would need to involve voices as representative as possible of the different parties involved, and include those that are traditionally marginalised or silenced. Beyond community engagement, buy-in from the legal and policy community is needed to translate collective choices into enforceable instruments and mechanisms. This critical step requires innovative approaches to develop ways of framing, and vehicles to contain, new governance functions. A dedicated interdisciplinary research agenda across data, law, policy and the social sciences will help link the theory of social licensing and its practical implementation. Successfully implementing social licensing will most likely require institutional innovation as well, which could include highlighting the role of data stewards or other individuals tasked with responsibly promoting data sharing. We've seen increasing calls for the role of Chief AI Officer (CAIO) to lead integration of AI technologies to drive innovation and achieve competitive advantage. We do believe there should be a dedicated role in all fields of data collection, public and private, to identify how data may be used in an organisation. But we also believe this scope is too limited. Such a role can also include identifying opportunities based on other data that is available or should be. It can further include identifying opportunities based on an organisation's own data that may be shared – not only for profit, but also for the public good.

BEIJING , Dec. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- At the end of 2024, we take a look back at the Chinese economy's performance this year. China's domestic GDP grew by 5.3 percent year-on-year in the first quarter, 4.7 percent in the second quarter and 4.6 percent in the third quarter this year, with an average growth rate of 4.8 percent in the first three quarters. Since September, as a package of incremental policies continues to yield its effects, China's economy maintains an upward trend. Overall, we are fully confident in achieving our economic growth goal this year. The country's economic performance has been hard-won. Externally, transformations around the world unseen in a century are unfolding at a greater pace, with global economic growth remaining sluggish, and the complexity, severity and uncertainty of the external environment on the rise. At home, domestic demand is insufficient, social expectations remain weak and there are difficulties associated with structural adjustments. The situation is severe and complex, and the task is difficult and weighty. However, under the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, Chinese localities and government agencies are more confident and are taking solid steps to deliver outcomes. The results underscore that "fundamentals of the Chinese economy, and favorable conditions such as a vast market, strong economic resilience and great potential remain unchanged." Huge market, vast space Markets are the scarcest resource. The modernization achieved by 1.4 billion Chinese people has resulted in the addition of a new super-large market larger than those of all developed countries combined. The new development paradigm will enable China to fully unlock its market potential and create greater demand for other countries. With a new car rolling off production line on November 14 , China's annual production of new energy vehicles (NEVs) surpassed the 10 million milestone, becoming the first country in the world to do so. Behind the number is China's robust supply and demand. In the first 10 months, China's production and sales of NEVs grew by 33 percent and 33.9 percent year-on-year, respectively. China continues to take the lead in the electrification and intelligence transformation of the automotive industry, which is attributed to the supply, policy support and demand advantage in the ultra-large market. Markets bring valuable business opportunities. Take cars for example. By the end of June, China had 345 million cars, but the country's car ownership level per 1,000 residents is less than half of that in developed countries. Additionally, China's NEV ownership is only 24.72 million, which means continuous demand in the future. Markets breed competition advantages. China's vast market contributes to the formation of "economy of scale" and "economy of scope," which generates greater profits for enterprises and reduces innovations costs, and also helps provide a large number of application scenarios and boost the large-scale application of innovations. China leads the world in batteries, motors and electronic control technologies, while its intelligent cockpits and intelligent driving are internationally advanced. Thanks to the benign interactions between supply and demand, the industrialization of new technologies and new products is speeding up. Strong resilience, solid basis Resilience strengthens self-belief. China has come to where it is today after overcoming all kinds of difficulties and challenges. Foreign trade is an important barometer in this regard. In the first 10 months of the year, China's foreign goods trade rose by 5.2 percent year-on-year to reach a new high compared with the same period historically. The improvement in the quality and efficiency of the country's foreign trade against the backdrop of shrinking external demand reflects China's economic resilience. This resilience originates from China's solid manufacturing basis and industrial chain advantages. "We could not do what we do without them," Apple CEO Tim Cook said of Chinese suppliers during his third visit to the Chinese mainland this year, as over 80 percent of Apple's 200 major suppliers have set up factories in China . China has the world's most comprehensive industrial categories and a well-rounded industrial system, with the scale of manufacturing industry ranking top for 14 consecutive years. The high-end, intelligent and green development of the manufacturing sector continues to strengthen the stability of the country's industrial and supply chain. In the first three quarters, the manufacturing industry contributed 32.2 percent to the country's economic growth, up 11.2 percentage points. China moved up to 11th place in the ranking of the world's most innovative economies. The basis is solid, and risks and challenges are not to be feared. Resilience also comes from excellent policy adjustments. The nation has been strengthening counter-cyclical adjustments, accelerating the implementation of major national strategies and the development of securities capabilities in key areas while supporting large-scale equipment upgrades and trade-in policies for consumer goods with robust measures, boosting the stabilization of the property market and galvanizing the capital market. The government has also put forward a package of measures to dissolve local government debt risks. This year, a series of existing policies continue to produce effects and incremental policies are being effectively implemented, jointly helping the economy stabilize. Vast potential, strong momentum China's economy has vast potential and many advantages and favorable conditions for sustaining long-term development momentum. China has been the world's second-largest economy for many years, but still has vast development potential in terms of per capita and structure. China's per capita GDP remains relatively low, and the country's amount of infrastructure per capita is only 20-30 percent of that of developed countries. In 2023, China's urbanization rate, which measures the ratio of permanent urban residents relative to the total population, reached 66.2 percent by the end of 2023. Estimates show that each percentage point increase in the urbanization rate could drive 1 trillion yuan ( $137.55 billion ) in investment. Currently, both China's fiscal deficit ratio and government debt ratio are low, and the country's policy toolbox remains well-stocked. The potential also lies in elementary resources. China's human resources in science and technology ranked first in the country and the average length of education received by new entrants into the workforce has increased to 14 years, turning the demographic dividend into a talent dividend. In addition, overall sufficient social capitals, vast room for the highly efficient use of land and the vast unleashing of the potential of digital elements provide solid foundational support. This potential also comes from the huge market. The country's population of over 1.4 billion and middle-income population of over 400 million support a large-scale, diverse and huge domestic market. Accelerating the building of a unified national market will improve overall economic operation efficiency and continuously unleash the potential of domestic demand. Overall, China is a country with vast territory, a large population and unbalanced and uncoordinated development. This is a shortcoming, but also represents potential and a driving force for future development. Sparking vitality and building synergy through reform is essential to continuously unleashing development potential. From implementing regulations for fair competition reviews, accelerating the legislative process of the law on the promotion of the private economy and formulating normal communication mechanisms between governments and enterprises, to releasing a new national negative list for foreign investment and removing all market access restrictions for foreign investors in the manufacturing sector, China's reforms in key fields continue to deepen this year and high-level opening-up advances in an in-depth way. The third plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China adopted the Resolution of the CPC Central Committee on Further Deepening Reform Comprehensively to Advance Chinese Modernization. Driven by reform of the economic system, China is correspondingly boosting reform in other fields, and the internal development momentum and vitality will continue to strengthen. Reviewing allows a clear understanding of the situation and better moving forward. While some major economies experience low growth rates and high inflation this year, China is expected to achieve its economic growth target of around 5 percent, and continue to contribute around 30 percent to world economic growth. This stable performance underlines the fact that China's economy will continue to remain on a positive trajectory over the long run.
