The tool is based on multiple academic papers and Wikipedia's signs of AI writing, and is shared on Hacker News for feedback.", "body_md": "I have a weird habit of guessing whether something's AI before I check, especially on LinkedIn and Reddit (for obvious reasons). The detectors I used to confirm were mostly junk and built to sell you a \"humanizer\" upsell, so I went and read the actual research on what gives AI text away in 2026, then built my own (no login and free)\n\nThe main sources I used are these:\n[https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.07016](https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.07016)\n[https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.07183](https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.07183)\n[https://aclanthology.org/2025.coling-main.426/](https://aclanthology.org/2025.coling-main.426/)\n[https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.16107](https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.16107)\n[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing) (Amazing article on the topic)\n\nWould love to hear what you think and how you spot slop in the wild!\n\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48534908](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48534908)\n\nPoints: 2\n\n# Comments: 1", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-isitslop-xyz-a-free-ai-writing-detector-built-on-latest-research", "canonical_source": "https://isitslop.xyz", "published_at": "2026-06-15 00:32:43+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-15 01:12:07.843832+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "artificial-intelligence", "natural-language-processing"], "entities": ["Isitslop.xyz", "Hacker News", "LinkedIn", "Reddit"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-isitslop-xyz-a-free-ai-writing-detector-built-on-latest-research", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-isitslop-xyz-a-free-ai-writing-detector-built-on-latest-research.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-isitslop-xyz-a-free-ai-writing-detector-built-on-latest-research.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-isitslop-xyz-a-free-ai-writing-detector-built-on-latest-research.jsonld"}}
