The Darkroom Test — How can you tell if a photo or video is AI-generated?

AI can now make photographs and videos that look completely real, so how do you actually check one? This lesson gives you the question that still works when your eyes stop working — what else exists of this moment? — and then makes you use it. Judge five pictures as real or fake, then hold each one under the developer and see what you were really looking at: hands, shadows, the direction of the light, and underneath all of it, where the picture came from. Wrapped around one night in a darkroom under the stairs, when a fake photo of an 800 metres final is about to cost your sister her season.
