15 Hilarious Examples Of People Who Thought AI-Generated Photos Were Real
From chatbots and virtual assistants to smart homes and autonomous vehicles, artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the way we live and work.
Content creation is one of the areas that have been impacted the most. Folks use AI to make poems and even entire song covers, where algorithms emulate the vocals of famous artists. Not to mention those 'Harry Potter by Balenciaga' type of videos.
Some of these shenanigans can be quite convincing, too. So in an attempt to remind you to stay vigilant, we introduce the Facebook group 'People who think AI-generated photos are real.' More specifically, the screenshots they collected of unsuspecting individuals falling for the fabrications.
In this day and age, it's better to be safe online than sorry.

We managed to get in touch with the administrators and moderators of 'People who think AI generated photos are real' and they agreed to tell us more about their group.

Because of this, the group is set to approve-only posting, meaning that the team manually greenlights posts that appear on its feed, preventing repetitive or irrelevant content.
"Another issue that we have is people just generally not being nice in the comments," the admins and mods added.

For the untrained eye, it may seem that AI generates realistic images that are hard to distinguish from those created by humans, closer examination often reveals subtle nuances and imperfections that allow us to differentiate them.
For instance, the admins and mods of the group said that "AI hasn't been able to master the human form properly. There are often missing or extra ears, fingers, and entire arms."

Another thing that the folks behind 'People who think AI-generated photos are real' look for when analyzing an image is written language. "AI art struggles with letters and often ends up being a jumbled mess!" they said.
"Quite often, there will also be other inconsistencies in the image, such as a child holding up a picture that turns into their t-shirt, or it will look like a cross between a photograph and a painting."
