Is it AI or a photo? Here is how to check

I’m not gonna lie – AI-generated images are getting harder and harder to spot. They’ve become super-realistic, sometimes almost impossible to tell them apart from real photos. Add our short attention span to the equation, and the fact that we don’t spend too much time analyzing – and you get fake news and viral “photos” that aren’t photos at all. But regardless of how advanced AI generators are, human reasoning still has an advantage (at least for now). And I’m on a mission to help you quickly figure out what you’re looking at. In this article, I’ll share some telltale signs that an image is AI, and I’ll share some tools that will help you confirm it.

OpenAI lets artists opt out of AI training data – but there’s a catch

Many artists have complained about tech giants using their work to train AI models. Some, including writer George R. R. Martin, have even filed lawsuits against OpenAI, Stability AI, and other companies for using their work for these purposes without permission. OpenAI is now offering a chance to artists to remove their creative works from being used in the training data of DALL-E 3, the company’s newest image generator. But there’s a catch: the process is so detailed, complicated, and time-consuming, that artists have called it “enraging.”
