Measuring Human Contribution in AI-Assisted Content Generation

The paper "Measuring Human Contribution in AI-Assisted Content Generation" addresses the challenge of determining how much human input influences content produced with generative AI. It proposes an information-theoretic framework that calculates the mutual information between human input and AI output relative to the self-information of the output, thereby quantifying the proportion of human contribution. Experiments across various creative domains show that this measure can distinguish different levels of human involvement in AI-assisted works.

greCAPTCHA: Assessing Understanding as Evidence of Research Authorship Under Generative AI

The paper introduces greCAPTCHA, a proctored assessment designed to gauge authors’ understanding of their own research manuscripts by measuring their capacity to verify content. It generates questions at multiple levels of comprehension and produces an evaluative report based on responses. A prototype study with 31 researchers showed that automated scores could predict authorship with an AUC of 0.90, and participants reported positive experiences and constructive feedback for future deployment.
