## Overview
Detect-GPT is a web-based tool designed to help identify whether a piece of text was generated by a large language model (LLM) like GPT. It operates as an open-source project, making its methodology transparent. The tool assesses the perplexity of a given text, comparing it to what a language model might generate, to provide a likelihood of AI origin. While not definitive, it aims to assist in discerning AI-generated content from human-written text.
