“Nice try, but no”

1. Visual detection is not a reliable solution to the AI deluge.

2. AI detectors often do not detect AI.

3. Laws requiring disclosure of AI use would be unenforceable.

4. Voluntary precautions by AI companies are a non-starter.

So what’s the solution?

• Finding trustworthy image sources.

How? Through the frequent application of trust tests.

(The word “frequent” is important, because an image provider’s credibility can change overnight.)
