I asked over there about how to spot "AI" images, now I need some pictures to practice this on, and IDK where to find pictures that are definitely "AI"-generated

Not a collection but rather a good guide to spotting AI photos and art. TL;DW AI generators don’t distinguish file types and different camera sensors when dredging for content to feed their databases and thus AI images end up with different artifacts squished together.

This isn't really a good way to spot it. Theres a lot of tools that artists use that can end up with digital paintings doing weird artifacting like this, one I can think of are custom brushes or people that collage to make their art. Also, theres a whole new brand of artist that uses AI in a workflow to make their images faster. They might sketch something out and then have ai fill in the most time consuming parts (such as a head of hair) and it will all look very believably not AI. It basically is just collaging but way faster.

He did show that heavy-duty sharpening can produce similar artifacts, so he acknowledged that you’ve got to evaluate the theming/consistency/style of the artifacting.
