How To Spot an AI Image

How to spot a deep fake or a generated scam video. Shadows and vanishing points. We live in a 3D space. AI is creating 2D images in an attempt to simulate a 3D space and it's doing that without really a proper understanding of the laws of physics that govern light. You know intuitively that shadows will be cast away from it. AI kind of gets this and tries to get it right, but if you try to align the shadows with the light source, odds are that they're not going to converge properly. And the same goes for something that human artists have understood for centuries. See, in a real picture, every object eventually converges towards what's called the vanishing point on the horizon. AI fails to do that and is going to draw lines that don't converge [music] properly. We are far beyond the days of Will Smith's face melting as he eats his non-convergent spaghetti. Depending on the model and how much effort someone would put in, sure, you might spot an extra limb or lack thereof and instantly know the image is fake, but it's gotten much harder to tell right away and is advancing at a rapid pace.
