INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that AI text detectors are themselves machine learning models trained to classify writing as human or AI generated?
Unclear. Several peer-reviewed sources describe AI text detectors as tools that classify writing as AI- or human-generated, and one paper explicitly trains neural detectors on generator data. None of the placed items states the general claim that AI text detectors are themselves machine learning models trained for this classification task.
