        Please don’t waste your time with AI ‘AI detectors’. Unless there’s a synthid or something similar, they’re entirely bullshit.

        The last thing anyone should ever be using AI for is telling them what is and isn’t real/true.

          I will admit I didn’t think that maybe the site itself was using AI, and even sources I’ve found saying so aren’t entirely reliable (although I wouldn’t be surprised), so dare I say this wasn’t me denying “common sense.”

            Ah, my bad for being a dick about it. Seeing people asking AI if shit is true/real has gotten so bad I instantly start slamming my head into the desk without pausing to make sure they knew that’s what they were doing first.

              No worries, I appreciate it. The whole situation around AI is just unfortunate, including the arguments about things being AI-generated (or how to tell they are without throwing it back at AI.)

                If something doesn’t have a synthid or similar thing built in to generated images by a very few AI companies then there is no way to tell if image, video, or text was created by AI unless it has an obvious tell, which is getting more and more rare.

          That image is obviously AI though, the bumper on that tesseract is way too small compared to the grass blades

            Possibly. Could be other image editing. Since the picture didn’t seem to exist on the internet until a few days ago I imagine it’s AI, the entire point is that unfortunately there’s no way to be sure unless you know something’s provenance.
