I think you are underestimating human beings here. Sure humans would make errors, but literacy and reading comprehension are skills that all of the graders would have. If ML solutions are not recognizing obvious repetition, markov-chain text, excessive excerpts/quotations, or bbb bbbb bbbbbbb bbb bb; then it is likely that they are grading on an entirely different level of interpretation below the humans.
- albntomat0 8y agoI was unclear in my previous comment. Humans are fine with recognizing gibberish answers, but I'm skeptical of the ability to differentiate great writing from simple decent.
- TheCoelacanth 8y agoThat's fine for this purpose because even the most exclusive universities can't really expect great writing as a precondition for admission. These AIs can't even distinguish decent writing from complete gibberish.
