The results of this survey showing that humans are no better than a coin flip.
I didn't say "on par." I said we know how. I didn't say we were capable, but we know how it would be done. With AI detection, we have no idea how it would be done.
No it doesn't. It speedruns the tedious parts of writing algorithms, but we still need to be able to compose the problem and tell the network what an acceptable solution would be.
Several startups, existing tech giants, AI companies, and university research departments have tried. There are literally millions on the line. All they've managed to do is get students incorrectly suspended from school, misidentify the US Constitution as AI output, and get a network really good at identifying training data and absolutely useless at identifying real world data.
Note that I said that this is probably impossible, only because we've never done it before and the experiments undertaken so far by some of the most brilliant people in the world have yielded useless results. I could be wrong. But the evidence so far seems to indicate otherwise.
Right, thanks for the corrections.
In case of GAN, it's stupidly simple why AI detection does not take off. It can only be half a cycle ahead (or behind), at any time.
Better AI detectors train better AI generators. So while technically for a brief moment in time the advantage exists, the gap is immediately closed again by the other side; they train in tandem.
This does not tell us anything about non-GAN though, I think. And most AI is not GAN, right?
True, at least currently. Image generators are mostly diffusion models, and LLMs are largely GPTs.
