Common AI-generated image cases
People often use this check for profile photos, product images, social media posts, AI art, news-style images, and suspicious screenshots.
Why context still matters
An image can be generated, edited, compressed, reposted, or miscaptioned. The detection score only addresses one part of the review.
A high AI signal means the image deserves more review. It does not identify the creator or intent.
Use a clean file
If possible, upload the original file rather than a screenshot of the image. Screenshots can remove metadata and alter detection signals.
AI-generated image FAQ
Can edited photos look AI-generated?
Yes. Heavy smoothing, compression, filters, and resizing can create signals that resemble generated images.
Can AI images have metadata?
Sometimes. Metadata may be added, removed, or changed by editing tools and platforms, so it should be reviewed carefully.
