Yeah, sorry I have all comments turned off on all posts made from this account (unless its from someone I know personally). It was frustrating me seeing people using these things and doing literally no research into whether or not they were accurate (was not surprised to learn they're inaccurate)

I can't believe my smile has been from faceApp all along 😭

and here is the "good" detector embarrassing itself again

One final one so no one can be like "you generated the smiley face" (which would be insane but, lmao, some people online are like this) Here is me drawing a smiley

Good news: You can do it yourself. If you zoom in, are there weird artifacts that defy explanation? Has the artist ever shown themselves coloring? Do they ever show progress shots or sketches or lineart versions of their work before it's completed? Use your eyes, use your brain, ditch the tools

I understand wanting to have some surefire way to know if something was made by a person or not, but there's a miserable irony in people turning to an ai tool (that trains on the stuff you feed into it, by the way!) to tell them whether or not something is ai, only for it to be bad at its job

Next I thought maybe it's just unfairly hating on my smiley face, so I drew a heart with a single line - surely it's not going to think there's almost a 1/3rd chance that line is AI-

ah dangit

with photoshop cs6's invert function

I actually forgot which one this was, sorry I should have labeled them.

with photoshop cs6's "auto-contrast" function

Using the sharpen tool in photoshop cs6 on the smiley face, this one almost got to 70% certainty?? Insane

Yikes! 3 lines drawn in the span of 2 seconds and the "accurate" detector is saying it's likely to contain ai content. At this point I was curious to see just how bad this thing is at its job, so I used some other default photoshop CS6 functions on the smiley to see what happened
(see alt text)

a digital illustration of a smiley face (3 lines total) resulting in a 53.7% ai likelihood evaluation

Kind of an awkward PSA because I've had some artist mutuals recommend these sites/tools, but
"ai image detection" tools are snake oil, and I feel like nobody bothered to scrutinize them.

So I opened photoshop cs6, drew a smiley face, and uploaded it to the "accurate" detector:

I'm still going to post my work here, I'm just abandoning this personal account

Jay D@@jay.bsky.team You could try a poster's strike. I hear that works crystal @cim.bsky.social your user base consists entirely of people who are willing to migrate from social media websites that turn on them

It’s funny because it’s true

Waiting for the year where multiple games she's in come out and she's in a competition with just herself

I'm swimming across the ocean as we speak

Can I have some 🥺

I think it's going to be fine <3 no one in the party is mad at anyone else for any reason

This is so cool!!

unironically going outside is the only right move nowadays

The homogenisation and consolidation of buisinesses and brands has led to the erosion of the midlist, the indie movie or band or comic. There's a real sense of "I'll only try media that's already popular / famous," and I'm begging you to look for the weird shit, the experimental, the niche.

equivalent forms of suffering imo

It is fruit <3 crunchy fruit

For real😭 the youth don't need those healthy joints. Give them to US

No singles, so I hope a tray of 6 is acceptable

You got it 🙏

Godspeed, wing-warrior

nut discussion is thirsty work

time to start playing the buffy games

This is technically unrelated to this post, but I'm still amazed that you were able to identify that low poly bird from jade empire

😂 yeah I really enjoy working in it!

Yep 😎
