The latest survey from Clutch captures a cultural turning point: AI-generated images have quietly crossed the line where most consumers can no longer tell the difference between what’s real and what’s artificial. Before seeing any examples, two-thirds of respondents were sure they could spot an AI image. But when put to the test, more than half were wrong, a finding that underscores just how seamless AI visuals have become. Younger generations, often thought of as more digitally savvy, performed only slightly better, with many of those most confident in their ability to detect fakes still misidentifying them.
