As a visually impaired person on the internet. YES! welcome to our world!
You're lucky enough to get an image description that helpfully describes the image.
That description rarely tells you if it's AI generated, that's if the description writer even knows themselves.
Everyone in the comments saying "look at the hands, that's AI generated", and I'm sitting here thinking, I just have to trust the discussion, because that image, just like every other image I've ever seen, is hard to fully decipher visually, let alone look for evidence of AI.
Is there no software that can just tell you if it's AI generated or not?
They exist but none of them are perfect - they can't possibly be perfect. It's a bit of an arms race thing where AI images get more accurate and the detection software get more particular to match, however the economic incentives are on the side of the former.
I think so, but I don't have the mental energy at the moment to sit down and figure out if the AI detection software is accessible either. I know some of my colleagues use programs to check student work for LLM plagerism, but I don't assign work that can be done via an LLM so I haven't looked into that, and that's different from the AI images.
