OpenAI, the company that made ChatGPT, has publicly said AI detectors are unreliable.

Well, they did initially try to make their own detector before giving up because it actually is impossible.
I've had authors I helped edit get accused of being AI, despite their works being written years before the hardware we use to do ai existed.

"I have proof that you're lying and that your lies are causing me harm. That's slander. Accusing me of plagiarism is slander. Are you really prepared to lose a court battle over this?

That's actually a really solid prediction
I know kids today are using version/edit history in schools when being accused of it.
