    Is it invisible to accessibility options as well? Like if I need a computer to tell me what the assignment is, will it tell me to do the thing that will make you think I cheated?

      I think here the challenge would be you can’t really follow the instruction, so you’d ask the professor what is the deal, because you can’t find any relevant works from that author.

      Meanwhile, ChatGPT will just forge ahead and produce a report and manufacture a random citation:

      Report on Traffic Lights: Insights from Frankie Hawkes
      
      ......
      
      References
      
          Hawkes, Frankie. (Year). Title of Work on Traffic Management.

        Fair enough, if I thought it was just a bs professor my citation would be from whatever person I could find with that name. I’ve seen bad instruction and will follow it because it’s part of the instruction (15 years ago I had one that graded by the number of sentences in your answer, they can get dumb), but I totally see how ChatGPT would just make stuff up.

    Ah yes, pollute the prompt. Nice. Reminds me of how artists are starting to embed data and metadata in their pieces that fuck up AI training data.

    Btw, this is an old trick to cheat the automated CV processing, which doesn’t work anymore in most cases.

      The text has nothing unusual, just a request to make sure a certain author is cited. It has no idea that said author does not exist nor that the name is even vaguely not human

    Wouldn’t the hidden text appear when highlighted to copy though? And then also appear when you paste in ChatGPT because it removes formatting?
