Can you have TOO many degrees?

Having any AI software rewrite any part of your paper is plagiarism because you are claiming it as your own writing. If you feel that your writing is to the caliber of a master's or doctoral level of writing, you should not need any AI tools. Submitting articles, books, or assignments that are entirely AI-written is a significant negative; the score would not come out as high if AI software were used to correct minor errors as the score is generated as it scans algorithms that show if the writing is original, human-written, and AI-refined, Ai-generated and AI refined, or fully AI-generated. The AI detector does not lie; if it were simply Grammarly, it wouldn't pop a high score anywhere near 80-100% on a student's paper for AI-generated writing.

Using technology to write or modify your papers does not make you a better writer. If you feel that you require these things as a student, maybe you should take a few writing or English courses to enhance and increase your skill set.
We'll have to agree to disagree. It is common knowledge that we write the way we speak. And the reality is everyone can't take an English Course to increase their skill set. You may not like it, but Universities are using AI [Grammarly] and other tools. Even Lawyers now have a Legal Writing AI tool to assist attorneys in writing and filling out myriads of legal documents flawlessly. And the Medical field also has AI to assist in diagnosing symptoms and also writing up medical reports. None of which falls in the category of "non-original writing." And certainly there is an entire business industry of book writing on Amazon where authors are using AI to write books and selling them online. 

I'll respectfully leave it there.

So, I guess you proved my point: If the person is not ready to do graduate-level work, they have no business in a graduate or doctoral program. CHATGPT and AI-generated work have no business in the academic field. Because English is not your first language, that's not the University's problem. You are on the same grading and criteria scale as everyone else. It clearly states you must be able to read, write, and understand English proficiently. The person is doing a disservice to themselves by using AI generators. Also, if you use AI generators to write papers, assignments, submitted published articles, or books, you plagiarize because the AI generator is doing the work for you. You cannot accept the glory of publishing if it's not your work, especially with a high AI generation score. If my lawyer used AI generation to create motions, documents, discovery, etc., that's a red flag; I would get a new lawyer.
On the other hand, a doctor uses a licensed system that a medical academic writing company created to write the diagnosis and allows a hospital system to buy and use the system for the sake of providing a scientific diagnosis. That's a different story. These systems are endorsed by hospital systems that pay for the writing, but a person wrote all those diagnoses. You can't compare this to academic writing... You are doing a disservice to the University, the educational field, and the research field when a computer system does the work for you. Original writing is writing you draft up yourself and put together based on research and sources.
