===How to Spot AI-Generated Content===
AI Bros love to generate content, and so do content farms. Thankfully, they all seem to be dunderheads who can't quality check their own crap (that or they're doing ragebait), so spotting out an AI generated image isn't too difficult... [[Grimdark|yet]]. Here are some tiny little details to look after if you want to singleout AI generated content:

====For text====
*A major predilection of reusing both very common phrases and extreme purple prose (eg: every single city is 'vibrant and bustling').
**An extension of the above, a tendency to be overly formal and sound like corporate PR speak in settings where such is inappropriate
*An inability to keep details straight. LLMs can only store so much memory, so they will randomly pick up what they think is important when generating. As corollary:
**Bringing up random details unprompted
*Repeating itself multiple times
*Being bad at math - [[FAIL|which is remarkable for a machine]].
*An inability to avoid covering its ass, modern LLMs seem programed to always end their statements with a 'however' that refutes their entire argument or simply waffle without saying anything concrete.
*Excessive positivity. Obviously, humans can write positively too, but AIs are generally incapable of expressing anger or hostility even in situations where it would absolutely be appropriate for a person to express those emotions. This however is mostly because AI companies really don't want the PR of their AI models being racist or depicting 'edgy' topics so they filter them to be positive.
*Citing sources that simply don't exist. Usually happens with fake journalists or really bad lawyers.
**This problem of making shit up in a model that's not supposed to do that at all is common enough to have its own term: AIHallucinations.

====For art====
*Weird anatomy - weird bending limbs, unrealistic proportions and various parts just... vanishing into nothing
**Hands tend to be a dead giveaway for AI art. Most programs struggle very much with creating believable hands and thus tend to create weirdly proportioned hands at best and horribly misshapen blobs at worst. This only gets magnified if you want someone to hold an item. That said, remember a lot of humans struggle with hands as well so it's not a 100% giveaway.
*Very static poses and expressions.
*Flat and overexposed lighting (but see also Thomas Kinkade).
*Nonsensical scribbles pretending to be writing.
*Backgrounds that make no sense, like lines that should be parallel converging.
*A "piss" filter. Because the AI actually [[Derp|doesn't have enough human-created data]] to train itself on, it resorts to using its own material. Which means it quickly deteriorates because unless you're keeping a close eye on it, it will inevitably go back to generate the same garbage it did prior to intense training. However, the most glaring of those degenerations is the application of a colored filter, most notably yellow, which can't be removed even if asked.
*A shit ton of very similar, but not identical, images all uploaded in a row. There are ways for humans to batch make art, such as making one image and photoshopping layers onto it, putting arms on a different layer so you can easily draw them for different poses, or the various other tricks Hanna Barbera pulled off to make their cartoons cheap. But if you see a bunch of art with slightly different backgrounds and/or slightly different poses and random details getting changed around, it's more then likely the AI was told to batch make a bunch of different images and no two images turned out identical.
* Stuff that emulates a specific style (Miyazaki, etc); AI is actually pretty good at questions like "make an illustrated version of this photo in the style of this artist"; it's a task that plays to AI's strengths of pattern learning and replication.

====For Videos====
*Stiff movements, as if the person animating it doesn't really know how to draw someone moving.
*Narration that emphasizes weird syllables if it doesn't fail to pronounce words at all.
**Another dead giveaway for AI TTS narration is the voice's flatness, as AI doesn't exactly understand things like tone or emotion.
*Arms morphing in-and-out of existence if it was really badly generated
*A lack of understanding of physics.
*Hardly anything happening at all.
*Extreme slowness with too many frames to make the movement seem natural.
*An inability to ''really'' imitate the animation style of a particular artist (if poorly generated)
*Lips moving but you can't really read anything coherent on them.
*Action that can be described as a "wiggling slideshow".
