Is this idea from AI or humans? A detector claims it can tell

What happened: Researchers developed IdeaLens, a detector that aims to distinguish human ideas from AI-generated ones by analysing a work's outline rather than its text. Key numbers: The detector spotted AI-derived ideas 91% of the time. Why it matters: Co-author Rishanth Rajendhran says it could help gauge AI use in conference and journal submissions. Nikhil Garg calls it impressive but cautions it is fallible and should not judge individual cases.
