AI-generated images often create faces with unnatural symmetry. In real life, human faces have slight asymmetries, so if you notice a face that appears overly symmetrical, it could be AI-generated.

AI can sometimes omit or add elements inappropriately. For example, a person might have an extra finger or a hand with fewer fingers than usual.

AI-generated images may have inconsistent lighting or shadows that don't align with the light source. If shadows fall in multiple directions or appear in unnatural places, the image might be AI-generated.

AI can struggle with details. Pay attention to things like texture of skin, hair, or fabric. If the skin is too smooth or has some unnatural looking texture and finish, then the AI can be AI-generated.
Look for unrealistic details

AI-generated images can contain objects that defy gravity or intersect in impossible ways. For example, you might see objects floating in the air or overlapping in a way that does not make sense.
Find illogical things

AI sometimes creates repetitive patterns in areas like backgrounds, brickwork, or foliage. Unlike natural patterns, these AI-generated patterns can lack variation and look too uniform.

AI-generated faces may have eyes, eyebrows, or lips that appear too perfect, almost as if they’ve been mirrored. Real human features usually have subtle differences that make them unique.
Observe facial features

AI often generates hair that appears too smooth or lacks the natural messiness of real hair. Similarly, skin may look too flawless, without the normal imperfections and texture found in real-life images.
Focus on hair and skin details

AI can create body shapes that look unnatural, such as limbs that are too long or short, or bodies that are disproportionate. These anomalies can indicate the image was AI-generated.

AI usually find it hard to generate texts in an image correctly. It usually makes some mistakes or at times it creates a text that’s gibberish, misspelled or doesn’t align properly. It is a strong indication that the image might be AI-generated.
Check for text and symbol mistakes
