Bars Juhasz
Bars Juhasz (born 1998) is a computer scientist and PhD research candidate known for his work in AI text detection, and was the first PhD student to create an adversarial AI model that allows generative-text to bypass detection efforts .[1]
Career
[change | change source]Juhasz is a student at Loughborough, where he obtained his masters in computer science, and became doctoral researcher alongside the Royal Air Force focusing in elements of disruptive machine learning. and AI UAV applications.[2][3]
History
[change | change source]Undetectable AI
[change | change source]In May 2023 Undetectable was set live after Juhasz alongside his co-creators Christian Perry, and Devan Leos released the software online.[2]
Functionality
[change | change source]The software utilizes adversarial machine learning to circumvent detection by AI text analysis tools. It also offers AI detection models for users without charge.[4]
Impact
[change | change source]Undetectable AI and Bars Juhasz has been discussed regarding what the implications of using such an app are. Major news and tech communities such Mashable[5] who covered the language accessibility potential, and Radar Online[6] both of which covered the implications and uses of the undetectable AI software.[7][8]
On January 15th, an article featured on Life and Style which did a deep dive on ChatGPT, and editors expressed concerns in regards to Juhasz's military tech background, said, "This aspect makes undetectable feel slightly more ominous than the average AI-hype-startup."[9]
AI Content Detection
[change | change source]One thing that's worth noting is that AI detection is not perfect, and there is disagreement among the scientific community who see it as either a revolutionary concept or an overhyped one with clear limitations and unreliability.[10]
Academic community
[change | change source]Juhasz' product received mixed reactions, with some researchers calling it. "a Modern Threat To Academia."[11] The researchers Andrea Taloni et al. described how juhasz' software succeeded in bypassing AI-text detection efforts, and warned that detection must be improved.[12]
Awards and recognition
[change | change source]- On December 10th 2023, TechAnnouncer presented Juhasz a confirmation of his disruptive yet notable accomplishments.[7]
- On July 9. 2023 VentureBeat listed Bars Juhasz with an AI innovation awards, under the category Visionaries According to VentureBeat "Juhasz has been using generative AI to create jobs for people who are disadvantaged, such as refugees, immigrants and people with disabilities." [13]
