6. A closeup examination reveals unrealistic discrepancies and strange artifacts.

Given the accuracy issues when performing a
Subjective Image Assessment, and the possibility of
images such as compositive photos having similar
inconsistencies, I have found it often necessary
to include an Objective Technical Analysis using
impartial quantitative metrics. These metrics
identify patterns, attributes, and anomalies. These
metrics also examine distinctive features, colour
values, resolution, and noise within images.
Oddities Contained In addition, other tools used in this analysis
included image metadata analysis and reverse
image searches. All of these processes use
standardized techniques for evaluating images.
In the tests conducted by our committee, two

categories of AI generative images were analyzed.
These two categories were first, images generative using AI text-to-images, and second Images
that were enhanced using Adobe Photoshop 2024’s generative AI features (generative fill/remove
elements and expand boundaries of an image).

what is required for AI-Generative technology. Hence, AI DeNoise, AI Sharpening and AI enlarging
do not receive the label of an AI-generated image in the metadata file.
To perform an objective technical analysis 100 AI generated images that reflected a wide range
of genres were created in each of the following nine AI generators:
• Adobe Firefly 2 text-to-image
• Bing AI
• Dream Studio
• Leonardo AI
Articles • Meta AI Articles

Midjourney
•
NightCafe
•
• SeaArt
• Stable Diffusion

Unrealistic and nonsensical lettering All of the 900 AI generated images that were created from the above listed generators as well
as 100 images that were captured in-camera and submitted to a 2020-2021 national exhibition in
Canada were tested using two AI classifiers. The classifiers that were used to test all images were AI
