Detecting AI content in responses generated by ChatGPT, YouChat, and Chatsonic: The case of five AI content detection tools
Open accessAbstract
This paper set out to test the accuracy of five AI content tools, GPTZero, OpenAI Text Classifier, Writer.com’s AI Content Detector, Copyleaks AI Content Detector, and Giant Language model Test Room, to detect AI-generated content in the responses generated by ChatGPT, YouChat, and Chatsonic. The responses were generated from these three AI chatbots using English prompts related to applied English language studies. Then, the ChatGPT-generated responses were Google-translated into German, French, Spanish, Southern Sotho, and isiZulu, and inputted into GPTZero for it to detect the AI-generated content in them. Additionally, the ChatGPT-generated responses Google-translated into German, French and Spanish were inputted into Copyleaks AI Content Detector for it to detect the AI-generated content in them. For the ChatGPT-, YouChat-, and Chatsonic-generated responses, Copyleaks AI Content Detector emerged as the top-most performing AI content detector among the five AI content detectors. It was followed by OpenAI’s AI Text Classifier. Concerning the ChatGPT-generated responses that were Google-translated into five languages, GPTZero misidentified all of them as human-produced. For the ChatGPT-generated responses that were Google-translated into German, French and Spanish, Copyleaks AI Content Detector correctly identified three of the German-translated texts, five of the French-translated texts, and all the Spanish-translated texts as AI-generated. Thus, it is evident from this paper that all five AI content detectors seem not yet fully ready to accurately and convincingly detect AI-generated content from machine-generated texts in different contexts. This has dire consequences for AI-generated plagiarism in academic essay writing.
Overview
AI snapshot
Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This exploratory study tested five free AI-content detectors on English responses generated by ChatGPT, YouChat, and Chatsonic, plus Google-translated versions of ChatGPT responses. Copyleaks AI Content Detector ranked first for correct English-text identification, while GPTZero misclassified all translated ChatGPT responses in five languages as human-written.
Key findings
- Across the three English response sets, the five detectors ranked by overall correct identification as: Copyleaks AI Content Detector (1), OpenAI AI Text Classifier (2), GPTZero (3), Writer.com’s AI Content Detector (4), and GLTR (5).
- For ChatGPT-generated English responses, Copyleaks correctly classified 5 texts and misclassified 1; GPTZero correctly classified 4 and was indecisive about 2; Writer.com’s detector classified 5 inaccurately as human-generated and 1 accurately; GLTR correctly classified 1 and misclassified 5.
- For YouChat-generated responses, Copyleaks correctly classified 5 and incorrectly classified 2; OpenAI AI Text Classifier correctly classified 3, misclassified 2, and was indecisive about 2; GPTZero correctly classified 1 and misclassified 6; GLTR misidentified all 7 as human-written.
- For Chatsonic-generated responses, Copyleaks correctly classified 5 and misclassified 3; GPTZero correctly classified 3, misclassified 4, and was indecisive about 1; OpenAI AI Text Classifier correctly identified 2, detected 1 incorrectly, and was indecisive about 5; GLTR misclassified 6 and was indecisive about 2.
- GPTZero incorrectly classified all ChatGPT-generated responses Google-translated into German, French, Spanish, Southern Sotho, and isiZulu as human-written; its highest perplexity scores were 2,478 (German), 221 (French), 361 (Spanish), 1,715 (Southern Sotho), and 938 (isiZulu). Copyleaks correctly classified 3 German-translated texts, 5 French-translated texts, and all Spanish-translated texts as AI-generated.
Methods
- Exploratory study design. Three sets of English prompts in applied English language studies were inputted into ChatGPT, YouChat, and Chatsonic; ChatGPT prompts were queried on 31 January 2023, and YouChat and Chatsonic prompts on 07 March 2023.
- Responses were inputted into five AI content detectors—GPTZero, OpenAI AI Text Classifier, Writer.com’s AI Content Detector, Copyleaks AI Content Detector, and Giant Language Model Test Room (GLTR)—in three phases from 30 March to 02 April 2023.
- Phase 1 fed English-only responses into all five detectors. Phase 2 fed ChatGPT-generated responses Google-translated into German, French, Spanish, Southern Sotho, and isiZulu into GPTZero. Phase 3 fed German, French, and Spanish translations into Copyleaks AI Content Detector. Analysis compared correct classifications, misclassifications, indecisive results, and reported perplexity or probability percentages.
Limitations
- The paper states a major limitation: it used free-to-use or non-premium versions of the AI content detectors; when data were collected, all five detectors had only free public versions.
- Evident from the text: the dataset is small and limited to prompts from applied English language studies, and only one detector (GPTZero) was used for the five translated languages while Copyleaks was used for three because it did not support Southern Sotho and isiZulu.
- Evident from the text: no texts were deliberately manipulated through editing, paraphrasing, or adding extra spaces, so the study did not test detector robustness against such evasion methods.

The AI-generated responses from ChatGPT, YouChat, and Chatsonic, elicited by the specific prompts used, are representative of AI-generated academic content in general.
“The prompts for these three AI chatbots were based on some of the aspects of applied English language studies (AELS).”

The Google Translate translations of the ChatGPT-generated English responses into German, French, Spanish, Southern Sotho, and isiZulu accurately preserve the content such that detection results on the translated texts reflect the tools' ability to detect AI content in those languages.

Self-check
Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Chatsonic perplexity maximum changes from 118 to 167
MinorThe results report 118 as GPTZero's highest perplexity score for Chatsonic texts, whereas the discussion reports 167. The results assign 167 to the YouChat texts instead.
“GPTZero had the highest perplexity score of 167, which, again, is a high score for texts that were machine-generated.”
“It recorded the lowest and highest perplexity scores for these eight texts as 32 and 118.”
Conflicting Copyleaks percentage for a ChatGPT-generated text
MinorThe results give 19.5% for Copyleaks' human-generated classification in the ChatGPT set, but the discussion gives 19.4%.
“For Copyleaks AI Content Detector, its probability percentage for a humangenerated text was 19.4%, which is a bit high for texts that were exclusively machine-generated.”
“Its lowest and highest probability percentages for AI-generated texts were 94% and 99.8%, while its probability percentage for humangenerated text was 19.5%.”
Translated-text perplexity limits are reversed
MinorThe results present 2,478 as the German texts' lowest score by listing it second after "high and lowest," but the discussion explicitly identifies 2,478 as their highest score. The same reversal applies to the Southern Sotho and (isi)Zulu figures.
“Its high and lowest perplexity scores for the texts translated into each of these languages were as follows: 110 and 2,478 (German); 57 and 221 (French); 108 and 361 (Spanish); 602 and 1,715 (Southern Sotho); and 651 and 938 ((isi)Zulu).”
“This is particularly the case with the German, Southern Sotho and (isi)Zulu texts, whose highest perplexity scores were 2,478, 1,715 and 938, respectively.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
