MODERATORS
And that’s why this claim is mostly bullshit. These use cases are all sciences, where the correct solution is usually the same or highly similar no matter who writes it. Small snippets of computer code cannot be copyrighted anyway.
Not surprisingly, softer subjects like “English” and “Theatre” rank extremely low on this scale.
Not to mention that a response "containing" plagiarism is a pretty poorly defined criterion. The system being used here is proprietary so we don't even know how it works.
I went and looked at how low theater and such were and it's dramatic:
Yeah, anyone who has written a thesis knows those tools are bullshit. My handwritten 140 page master's thesis had a similarity index of 11%.
