Is there any electronic way to see whether a picture is AI generated?
Other than a sneaky suspicious. Some tag or something?

You can usually tell by looking at the background. Unreadable text, people without faces. Objects blending into each other.
And the there is the general impression. AI generated pictures are usually too smooth. The colours too saturated. Too much contrast.
Not in the way you’re talking about. Ironically I think they’re training AI models to detect AI images from real ones.
I read recently (this past week) that ethical image generators are embedding certain machine-identifiable tokens into the image that can’t be seen by people, but that are ‘visible’ to image processors.
Sometimes the shadows make no sense. I see room photos that are AI generated that have lots of plants and it’s just not realistic.
Think also of Princess Kate’s photo in the spring with her children. The hands weren’t right.
Ultimately, there is no sure fire way unless one of the above defects or telltales are present.
I just get suspicious of oh so perfect pictures of nature. There should be a law. It’s false and misleading.
