Training Enhances Ability to Detect AI-Generated Faces

AI can generate hyperrealistic faces that are difficult to distinguish from real photos, even for super recognizers. However, short training sessions that highlight common AI rendering errors can significantly improve people's ability to detect fake faces, suggesting potential for human-AI collaborative detection methods. The study emphasizes slowing down and inspecting features to better identify fakes, though the longevity of training effects remains uncertain.

The Racial Bias in AI: White Faces Appear More Real than Others

Artificial intelligence (AI) can generate faces that appear more "real" than actual human faces, a phenomenon known as hyperrealism. However, a recent study found that this hyperrealism is only achieved with white faces, while AI-generated faces of color still fall into the uncanny valley. This racial bias in AI algorithms has implications for how people of color are perceived online and can reinforce racial prejudices in media. The study also revealed that those who were most fooled by AI-generated faces were the most confident in their choices, highlighting the need for transparency and independent monitoring of AI development. Mitigating these risks will require significant resources and regulations to address the implications of AI technology.
