AI-generated or Real?

In this "Detect Fakes" experiment, brought to you by Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management, you will be presented with a series of images. These images may either be real photographs or AI-generated images. We ask you to examine each image carefully and share whether you believe it is AI-generated or real, and how confident you are in this judgment.
