11 Dead Giveaways the Image You’re Seeing Was AI-Generated
1 min read
Summary
AI image generators have improved drastically over the past couple of years, but they still often display tell-tale signs of manipulation.
Some of these include eyes that look eerily vacant or expressionless, mangled or mismatched branding, and reflections that contain distortions or extraneous elements not present in the original image.
Another common flaw is the absence of depth, with reflections and shadows often lacking.
Additionally, backgrounds are often confusing, with objects or architecture making little sense when taken in context with the rest of the image.
Text can often be garbled, with strokes that resemble letters but don’t form actual words.
While these flaws are less prevalent in newer models, the underlying issues still tend to show up in one way or another.
