Like we can use neural networks to detect content by specific authors (if we have enough content to sample), we can detect content produced by specific versions of specific AI models. But that doesn't tell us if it's AI or not in general. A model is just another "personality" with little biases. And if the sample is article-sized, and not book-sized, then it's also not big enough to detect properly.
