Description The wide availability of generative AI exacerbates existing threats to society. It would not be easy even for linguists to tell whether the text we are reading was generated by a Large Language Model (LLM) or written by a human. Researchers have started developing tools that detect AI-generated content. This paper tested how two of these tools, Compilatio and GPT-2 Output Detector, performed with Czech, Slovak and English texts. There was only one tool somewhat capable of detecting AI-generated texts: Compilatio. Other tools were designed to work only with English texts. Hence, we also tested whether automatically translating the Czech and Slovak texts to English before uploading them to the detectors would have given any promising results. Ultimately, we showed that the texts generated by ChatGPT4 were less detectable than the texts generated by ChatGPT3.5.
