OpenAI will release a tool for identifying photographs made by DALL-E 3.
In response to mounting concerns about the impact of AI-generated content on this year’s global elections, Microsoft-backed OpenAI announced on Tuesday that it will release a tool that can recognize photographs created by its text-to-image generator, DALL-E 3, according to Reuters.
During internal testing, the tool discovered images taken by DALL-E 3 around 98% of the time. It can also tolerate common tweaks like compression, cropping, and saturation changes with little to no affect.
