Can a tool detect AI generated text?

Google has created an amazing tool called @SynthID inside Gemini to detect whether an image is AI generated or not, and it works great most of the time. It works for images generated by different image models by Google like nano-banana-pro.

But is there any tool that can correctly detect AI generated text?

I have come across a bunch of tools, and most don't work as expected. For example, you might have seen people saying that some tools flag the constitution as AI-generated, and that says a lot about these tools. However, some tools do work as expected. For example, I used this tool called Undetectable. It correctly detected my own writing as not AI-generated and ChatGPT-generated text as AI-generated. But it wasn't accurate all the time; it made mistakes occasionally.

Some AI detection tools that I like are:

  1. Undetectable
  2. Grammarly AI Detector
  3. ZeroGPT
  4. Originality AI

And consider the output from these tools in this order – from top to bottom with the top being the best AI text detection tool.
