Robert Tadros, CEO and Founder of Impressive, said: “AI can be a very powerful tool with many applications, but it can also provide many pitfalls if used incorrectly or in the wrong setting. It has made it easy to produce large quantities of written work quickly, which can prove tempting for students and others to use to plagiarise rather than submit their own work.
“This enthusiasm for the potential good uses for AI and concern about AI plagiarism prompted this study to see which area of Australia was most obsessed with AI and which was most concerned by AI plagiarism.
“Sydney came out on top for the Australian city most obsessed with AI, and Toowoomba came out on top for concern about AI plagiarism, searching for AI plagiarism-related topics at a rate more than twice the national average.”
