I was missing a "don't know"/"can't determine" option.
For photographs specifically and some types of paintings/artificial stuff, there are things you can look for. But for other things, I feel like, or at least to my knowledge, you can't.
Like the pencil drawing. There's not enough things it could be doing wrong. It's a sketch. With simplistic but "error-excusing"/diffuse/transformable content.
The goal isn't really to be a quiz, but rather just to see how susceptible people are to AI generated art. Many of the images I chose are intentionally vague, 80% of people so far got the line art sketch wrong, and that's with knowing that many of these are AI generated. The results are definitely interesting to see.
A "don't know" option would ruin the point since most people would just choose that. I want to see where people lean towards.
I don't think that's necessarily a dead giveaway. Because there's been controversy about AI art that added watermarks. The controversy being because it implied the AI was scraping images that it definitely wasn't allowed to use.
The back left leg of the bench in the pencil drawing is in the wrong place - at least that was what I considered the 'tell'.
But I found it really hard to spot the AI.
