As the question states, is there a reliable way of detecting AI content? I vaguely recall OpenAI announcing something a long time ago that they were going to release something that says whether content was generated via ChatGPT, or am I misremembering?

Do we really need accrediated education to effectivly have the expected experience and/or knowledge in a chosen field? For instance can we learn more from doing a course in programming than we can from learning ourselves? I see the benefits in both: **Accerdited course** - Have an experienced tutor - …
