"You have to imagine, this is before TurnItIn even knew what AI detection was, and OpenAI wasn't considering this at all either," Tian said. As customer and media interest grew in GPTZero, Tian realized he had built something that could be a full-fledged startup.

He decided to team up with his friend Alex Cui, who was working on getting his PhD in computer science at the University of Toronto, to focus on GPTZero full-time.
