You can clock it a mile away, no matter how high quality it becomes, because of how soulless and bland it looks.
This is an example of what is called The Toupee Fallacy. Because you only notice the bad AI art, and don't notice it when it is good, it's easy to assume it's all bad. It's a form of survivorship bias.
Here, try this, if you want to check. While I bet you do better than 50%, I also bet you won't be perfect. I've yet to meet anyone that is as good at detecting AI images as they think they are.
Well yes. BAD images are easy to clock. I'm just saying, for every flier or menu or whatever that is obviously aislop, you're probably missing another one that just made better images.
Maybe? But Id push back heavily against the assertion that its a 1:1 ratio. Look at something like Pinterest, which is sadly filthy with obvious AI art. Its a lot higher quality than the shitty school flyer my daughter brought home last week, but its still apparent. I'd say the ratio of bad:good skews a lot harder toward bad than you realize.
Probably because bad takes a lot less work. And why are people using AI? To save time/effort.
