this whole bit about "how to spot AI images" is missing the point you can't believe what you see, now and *you never could* images were always potentially extremely deceptive; not to mention those doctored by earlier non-ML means, but even those actually produced by a camera

A.I. photos are flooding social media and contributing to an Internet where we can't believe what we see. Spotting A.I. 📷s is an important media literacy skill. It takes a few seconds to spot a fake and stop the spread of disinformation. Let's learn how! 🧵(1/5)
