Deepfakes and generated images: keeping a sharp eye
When images lie better and better, your critical mind becomes your best tool.
Tools today can create very realistic images and videos of things that never existed. It's impressive, sometimes fun, but it blurs the line between real and fake.
The small details that slip
Weird hands, inconsistent reflections, distorted text, an overly smooth vibe: these are common clues. None is absolute proof, but together they call for caution. Look closely.
Healthy doubt
Faced with a shocking image, the smart reflex isn't to believe everything or reject everything, but to check. Where does it come from? Who's spreading it? Do other reliable sources confirm it?
Technology moves forward, your critical mind must move with it. Staying curious and cautious protects you better than any detection tool.
