Celebrated novelists, countless students and at least one billionaire have recently been accused of using AI in their writing. The most commonly cited AI detector in these cases is called Pangram. 

Max Spero is the co-founder and CEO of Pangram. His problem is this: Can you build tools that reliably detect AI-generated text and images? And a few years from now, will anybody care?

In this episode, Max explains: 

• Why AI prose so often sounds the same
• How often Pangram makes mistakes
• How detectors like Pangram compete with humanizer tools 
• Why the big AI companies may not be interested in detection
• The shifting norms around AI-generated writing
