OpenAI Launches Tool to Detect AI Images, Aiming to Safeguard Fall Elections

May 7, 2024, 10:20 PM

OpenAI has developed a new tool that can detect images generated by its DALL-E 3 text-to-image generator with a 98% accuracy rate for unaltered images. The Microsoft-backed AI company announced the launch of this tool amid growing concerns about the potential misuse of AI-generated content, especially as experts warn of its impact on the fall elections. The tool's effectiveness decreases if the images are altered. OpenAI has also joined Microsoft and Adobe's content credentials group and plans to share the tool with disinformation researchers for real-world testing.
