Midjourney, DALL-E, Firefly, Stable Diffusion — the list goes on and on. We live in a world where machines are creating art, and they actually do it pretty well. The line between human creativity and artificial intelligence is blurrier than ever. And it’s sparking a fiery debate in the digital space: What makes art, art?
Obviously, algorithms aren’t as good as Van Gogh, Monet, Kahlo — but anyone could be fooled to believe that an AI artwork is made by them. It’s an interesting but unsettling thought, especially with deepfakes making waves in the news lately. So, the real challenge is identifying whether an image came from a human or a machine.
How do we do that exactly?
From subtle nuances to distinct styles, I’ll go over some tips I've figured out after working with these tools for months. Some are obvious telltale signs of AI while others are a bit harder to figure out.
