Pangram 100% is notoriously difficult for humans to do, even with intent.

  On how much text? There's a fair few reports that it's quite inaccurate when given smaller samples of text, and if you go cherry-picking the odds will likely go up even further.

    It's in the article - looks like they ran it on a book.

    No, they say they ran "passages" of the book through it.

  My neighbours regularly remind me that AI is quite different in French - despite being Francophone they tend to use it in English for what they think are better results.
  It's entirely plausible detection is totally different in different languages.
