it seemed like a really weird decision for OpenAI to have an AI classifier in the first place. their whole business is to generate output that’s good enough that it can’t be distinguished from what a human might produce, and then they went and made a tool to try and point out where they failed.

That may have been the goal. Look how good our AI is, even we can’t tell if its output is human generated or not.
