GPT4o-Receipt is a benchmark dataset of 1,235 receipt images that pairs GPT‑4o‑generated receipts with authentic ones from established datasets. The study evaluates five state‑of‑the‑art multimodal LLMs and a 30‑annotator crowdsourced perceptual study, revealing that humans are better at spotting AI artifacts yet perform worse at binary detection than models like Claude Sonnet 4 and Gemini 2.5 Flash. The paradox is explained by the fact that the dominant forensic signals—arithmetic errors—are invisible to visual inspection but can be quickly verified by LLMs.
The paper evaluates whether multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can serve as forensic detectors of deepfake facial images. Six MLLMs—including GPT-4o, GPT-5, GPT-5.2, Gemini 2.5, Gemini 3, and Seed 1.6—were tested on a dataset of 400 images (50 authentic and 350 synthetic) generated by seven leading image models. Results show that several MLLMs achieve high detection accuracy, with GPT-5.2 reaching 97.9% in pairwise comparisons, but the presence of invisible SynthID watermarks can reduce detection performance by about 10% for Gemini.

The paper investigates an agentic framework for open‑world fake image detection that combines specialist detectors with per‑detector triage, prompting, and conflict‑aware evidence arbitration. Experiments across six configurations and three multimodal large language model backbones reveal that naive detector fusion yields high false‑positive rates, while triage and prompting consistently filter unreliable evidence. The most significant improvement comes from the reasoning component: a stronger judge markedly outperforms a weaker one, especially under distribution shift, and overall manipulation recall is nearly saturated, highlighting that the key challenge lies in calibrating trust and arbitrating conflicting forensic evidence rather than detecting manipulations themselves.
