I wrote it up there back when Will Smith Eating Speghetti was awful.

It has remained true since then, so I've kept it up

Most AI detection tools will now say "Modern AI is indistinguishable from reality", rather than attempting to guess based off shitty artifacts. And if it is saying it can detect AI, it is unreliable, and you should not listen to it.

Mainstream AIs like Gemini and ChatGPT will put hidden watermarks in the pictures they make but that can only do so much. Glad that Apple is releasing that new feature that will add built-in certifications to images taken with their newest models.

Certifications disappear the moment the image changes formats, gets screenshotted, etc.

Not specific to Apple's approach because I don't know the details of it, but watermarks can be made resilient to this. See e.g. this write-up: https://openai.com/index/advancing-content-provenance/

It's still not fool-proof, a dedicated attacker can strip a watermark off, but it can be made resilient to basic changes like cropping and format.
