Can Canvas Detect ChatGPT?

[Daryl_Dixon]

I'm exploring whether platforms like Canvas (used for online learning and exams) can detect if a student has used ChatGPT or similar AI tools. I'm curious about how detection might work—does Canvas have built-in AI detection, or do instructors rely on third-party tools or plagiarism checkers? Any insights, experiences, or suggestions on this would be really helpful!

Canvas itself cannot directly detect ChatGPT. However, instructors may use integrated plagiarism detectors (like Turnitin) or analyze writing style inconsistencies, unusual syntax, or a lack of personal nuance to identify AI-generated content submitted through the platform.
