Has AI content detection become at all competent?

I think we probably need to go the other way, a comment or article needs a ‘faceId’ check before submission to get human stamp.

Of course that brings a whole another set of problems.

That sort of thing is trivial to bypass and is a massive privacy violation.
It's only a massive privacy violation for honest folk!
Fine, I'll just set up a head made by some SFX type that looks real enough for camera work.
“Encryption is easy — authentication is hard.”
From what I have seen, AI can detect AI better than humans. Humans are bringing baggage into it and vilifying legit writing techniques just because AI uses them. The whole concept that AI was trained on human writing, therefore uses well-known and proven writing techniques, but that those techniques are not exclusive to AI is utterly lost on some people.

The "dead giveaways" are not writing patterns, it is depth. AI will stay at a surface level when using argumentative writing patterns, whereas humans will add supporting information and connect the dots across sentences and paragraphs. It is the lack of connective language between thoughts and phrases that flag an AI.
