The first ones were easy to spot.
They're getting better.
I often refer to the visual thing as an "image" if I think it's AI.
The crazy thing is that AI "detectors" can violently disagree about some images (one will say nearly 100% AI-generated, another will say nearly 100% real).

@SomeMichGuy yeah but I still think I can tell

I've wondered that a lot too.

A few get by me now but most of them have that AI glow and are bad at detailing.
Often there's weird blur in places there should not be blur too.

that may have been true a few years ago, but it's actually everywhere now. a lot of it is shown as "ring camera" footage for example, because it's easier to pass real, since doorbell cameras wont have the best sound or videk quality. but there's high quality ai videos out there too

@Frostcloud yeah it's clever to use something with inherently lower quality.

The telltale sign of an AI image is it's distinct lack of 3-dimensional imagery perspective. This means that an AI computer-rendering of an image is incapable of simulating 'depth perception' of an object or a scene. This is because AI does not use 3-dimensional imaging.
Even your cellphone camera is incapable of depicting 'depth perception' like the human eye can otherwise do (assuming two eyes are being used) because your cell camera uses 2-dimensional technology as do most standard cameras today.
That said, the only option open to depict depth for an AI-generated image is through the use of pre-computed shadowing techniques to suggest some level of depth or difference exists when compared to a surface area which has no shadows.
A standard camera uses this same technique to show depth, tough that sense of depth is only what you know to be true from within your own experiences. Therefore, when you see a shadow within a camera image, you know from experience that one object is further away from the other in real life, so your mind's eye sees it that way in the 2D photo as well.
Relative to a flat surface area, a standard camera will capture shadows which might suggest that something is deeper than or further away from the reference point of the surface area.
An AI computer-generated image however, uses only 1-dimensional imaging (flat imaging) and will attempt to use natural light and pre-known experiences that are built-in to the computer model which represents 'depth' to depict some semblance of depth perception within an AI image. Any AI-generated image which depicts depth will have had that pre-known feature built into the computer's AI logic.
An example of this would be standing on the edge of the Grand Canyon and looking straight down with your eyes. You would be able to rationalize depth within the canyon but your camera cannot do that, nor can an AI image create the illusion of depth unless that perspective is programed into the AI generator.

I have a very vivid imagination, so try me on for size!

I’m not used to them, so I can’t always tell.

If it’s people I can definitely tell but it’s kinda hard with nature scenes

The videos even obvious are pretty funny, but pictures are different and pretty obvious 99.9% of the time.

It's getting a lot harder with the more recent and advanced generators

Depends on the quality of the program and the creator.

@ChipmunkErnie I dont think Ive ever been fooled

@TradEmily If you had been, how would you know? Wouldn't that be the definition of "fooled"?
Elessar · 31-35, M
50% of the voting population get fooled by things like "trickle down economics" and you're surprised they fall for AI? lmao

Everyone can have different skill sets.
Some can hear perfect pitch
Some can see something and recreate it
Some have an amazing ability to fix shit
Some people can be hilarious
Some have an innate eye for detail
🤷♀
