Hey everyone. I made a casual survey to see if people can tell the difference between human-made and AI generated art. Any responses would be appreciated, I'm curious to see how accurately people can tell the difference (especially those familiar with AI image generation)

I was missing a "don't know"/"can't determine" option.

For photographs specifically and some types of paintings/artificial stuff, there are things you can look for. But for other things, I feel like, or at least to my knowledge, you can't.

Like the pencil drawing. There's not enough things it could be doing wrong. It's a sketch. With simplistic but "error-excusing"/diffuse/transformable content.

The goal isn't really to be a quiz, but rather just to see how susceptible people are to AI generated art. Many of the images I chose are intentionally vague, 80% of people so far got the line art sketch wrong, and that's with knowing that many of these are AI generated. The results are definitely interesting to see.

A "don't know" option would ruin the point since most people would just choose that. I want to see where people lean towards.

The back left leg of the bench in the pencil drawing is in the wrong place - at least that was what I considered the 'tell'.

But I found it really hard to spot the AI.
