Hey everyone! I've been trying to find some reliable tools that can help spot if an image was generated or edited by AI. There are so many options out there, but it's kinda tricky to know which ones actually work well. Anyone got some go-to apps or websites for this kinda stuff? Appreciate any tips or experiences you can share!

Would love to see a community-built database of known AI-generated images to compare against.
Would be great if social media platforms integrated AI image detection to reduce fake content spread.
The problem is sometimes AI-generated images are so good even humans can't tell the difference anymore.
Is there any way to detect AI art based on the file size or compression artifacts?
I tried a couple of mobile apps for AI image detection but they were super slow or crashed. Any suggestions for fast ones?
The AI tech advances so fast, detection tools have to keep up real quick or become useless.
Are there any open source AI image detection tools? Would love to try running some locally without uploading pics online.
I’m kinda worried that detection tools might get used to unfairly accuse legit photographers.
Sometimes I just reverse search images to see if they show up anywhere else online, kinda helps.
For photography pros out there, how do you handle AI detection when clients want AI edits?
I wish there was a browser plugin that instantly tells if an image on a webpage is AI-made or not.
Some AI detection services charge fees which kinda sucks if you just want to check a couple pics.
You might also wanna check out this site I found called ai-u.com. They keep a list of new AI detection tools that pop up.
I tried uploading some AI-generated art to these detection sites and got mixed results, some said yes, some no.
Can AI detection tools work on video frames too? Like for deepfakes?
Honestly, a lot of these AI detection tools rely on metadata and just basic cues. If someone's good at hiding that info, it's tough to catch.
Does anyone know if these detection tools work better on certain types of images? Like portraits vs landscapes?
Does anyone use AI detection tools as part of their workflow before publishing images?
Sometimes you can tell just by the weird eyes or unnatural textures in the image. AI still struggles with those details.
I think education is key too, teaching people how to spot AI images themselves.
I've been using a couple of online tools for this and honestly some are hit or miss. One that kinda works well is ImageForensics, but it ain't perfect.
I tried some AI image detectors last week and they struggled with anime-style images.
Some apps detect AI images by checking inconsistencies in lighting or shadows. Pretty neat approach but sometimes it gives false positives.
