Several Internet users expressed their gratitude to the PIB for the informative and insightful video.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of humanity's greatest achievements, but the technology is also disruptive and dangerous. Generative AI can be used to create great things, but it can also be used to do harm. AI-generated imagery is a great example of this. These fake images pose a great risk as they can spread misinformation, create deceptive personas, and manipulate public opinion.
Recently, the government's Press Information Bureau published a video on how to identify AI-generated photos without using technology. The most basic thing is to find unrealistic details in the image, such as missing fingers, mismatched textures, and anomalies in the text. Finding strange lighting, gravity-defying objects, unrealistic shadows, unusual color contrasts, highly symmetrical faces, and eerie symmetry of objects are also some of the ways to identify AI-generated images. The Press Information Bureau provided four simple examples to help people understand the concept better. The video also introduced several online tools that can help identify such images.
“Become an image detective! Spot AI-generated images like a pro! Watch this video to learn how to look for details while identifying AI-generated images,” PIB Fact Check wrote while sharing the video.

Several internet users expressed their gratitude to PIB for the informative and insightful video. Reacting to the video, one user wrote, “Thank you for making such an informative video. Appreciate the efforts you put into making this video.”
Another commented: “Well done PIB.”
The Press Information Bureau launched the fact-checking unit in December 2019 to curb misinformation and fake news spreading online. It claims its aim is to “identify misinformation about government policies and programmes being circulated on various social media platforms.”
