<p>The past few weeks ChatGPT and the "miraculous" writing it is capable of have been everywhere; from writing poems, and essays to telling people jokes, it's doing everything.

<p>Edward Tian who is a computer science major at Princeton has developed GPTZero to counter this. Announcing the app on Twitter he writes the app can "quickly and efficiently detect whether an essay is ChatGPT or human written."&nbsp;</p>
