Detecting and disrupting AI

Looking Ahead

Meanwhile, in mid-2024, responses to AI are mostly reactive. Rather than being ahead of AI development, the responses face rapidly changing targets. Too often, they are a step or two behind. For that reason when learning about the issues, you should always get the latest information available. For example, articles from 18 months ago will tell you that AI images often have problems with realistic hands. That may still be true with amateur AI, but since March 2023, Midjourney has been able to render hands realistically, and it seems safe to assume in 2024 that other AIs can as well. At least for now, it's likely that AI detection will be a series of retreats from one position to another. Eventually, AI detection may resemble general computer security, with frequent updates. Almost certainly, the issue will not go away.
