How do you use AI to convince people you didn't use AI to get an idea?


Maybe after getting an idea on your own, you used AI to check for novelty, refine it, and write it up, but that's different from having an AI give you the idea in the first place.

Use first principles in your reasoning. Back your claims up with as much data as you can. It doesnt really matter if you used AI or not

Why not be honest?

Why do you need AI to convince someone you didn’t use AI? This seems like it would work against your case.

That's like asking how do you convince people you dug a hole without using a shovel... who cares what tools were used unless you're in some kind of game with such rules. the shovel is just a tool and it didn't dig the hole, you did.

Lots of ideas are new to the person coming up with them, only to find out that it was invented 50 years ago, doesn't mean you cheated. AI or not, just own it.
