Case 06 · Language coverage

None of the top 10 leaderboard detectors submitted non-English results.

Every top-10 detector was calibrated on English. The multilingual world was left out.

The failure · on the record

The RAID leaderboard has 47 detectors. All 47 submitted scores on RAID-test (English). None submitted scores on RAID-extra (code, German, Czech). Turnitin’s 61% false-positive rate on ESL essays is the compliance crisis for every non-US-native institution. We publish signed non-English results by design.
