There is one way OpenAI can be near 100% sure whether a piece of text was written by or with the help of ChatGPT. They could compare the piece of text against every conversation ChatGPT has ever had. (not saying it's a good idea)

Nope. You’d just ask chatgpt to generate the conversation with emojis instead of spaces and replace the emojis after.
A million variations of this approach AND it would push people towards Apple who will launch an on the phone LLM in the next 12 month.
In a year the technology will run locally on any computer - it’s time to give up on the fantasy that this can be detected or controlled. Today you can run a GPT 3.5 alike with 30B parameters on a consumer GPU at home that, with the right finetuning - will reach chatgpt performance.
Just let the idea go, it doesn’t work.
I wonder if it was too many false positives, like when some tool said the US constitution was written by AI. Which seems quite logical considering that LLMs imitate humans very closely and cannot by themselves prevent hallucinations which is the best predictor of whether it was written by a person in good faith or not.
