The Two Metrics That Drive AI Detection

GPTZero and similar detectors use two core signals:

Perplexity — how unpredictable each word choice is. AI runs low (predictable, safe word choices). Human writing surprises.

Burstiness — how much sentence-length complexity varies. AI runs flat. Humans alternate: a short punch. Then a long, clause-heavy sentence that builds toward something.
