Text-to-image generative models have advanced rapidly, with modern Diffusion Transformer architectures producing images that are increasingly difficult to distinguish from human-created artwork. This development has raised significant concerns regarding copyright protection, misinformation, fraud, impersonation, and the authenticity of digital content.

arXiv:2608. 12876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Detecting AI-generated images is only half the task: a deployed detector must also justify its verdict, yet existing detectors inherit three failure modes from their training data: real and fake images collected from different sources invite provenance shortcuts, supervised explanation corpora teach templated rationales, and a static forgery corpus leaves the decision boundary standing still while generators keep moving.
