AI tools are everywhere, but can Blackboard detect AI writing? On its own, no. However, with integrations like Turnitin and CopyLeaks, Blackboard can flag AI-generated text with up to 98% accuracy.

SafeAssign: Checks plagiarism but not AI directly.
Turnitin: Detects AI since 2024 with near-perfect accuracy.
CopyLeaks: Highly accurate at spotting AI content.

Should Students Worry?

Yes—using AI without citation is plagiarism. But when used for brainstorming, rewriting, or grammar checks, AI can be a helpful learning aid.

Bottom line: Blackboard itself doesn’t detect AI writing, but through Turnitin and CopyLeaks, it almost certainly can.
