I think most students are copying/pasting instructions to GPT, not uploading documents.

Right, but the whitespace between instructions wasn't whitespace at all but white text on white background instructions to poison the copy-paste.

Also the people who are using chatGPT to write the whole paper are probably not double-checking the pasted prompt. Some will, sure, but this isnt supposed to find all of them its supposed to catch some with a basically-0% false positive rate.

Or if they don't bother to read the instructions they uploaded

Just put it in the middle and I bet 90% of then would miss it anyway.
