As opposed to real AI photos?

As opposed to fake photoshopped photos, I suppose?

Fair point, but many photos are not edited to the point of fundamentally changing them. I wouldn't call a touched up wedding photo a "fake".

edit: I guess I was distracting from the point. Yes, "AI" already implies "fake". Guess if someone were to look for "how to spot fake photos" this would help them find this video?

"real" photoshopped photos don't typically add things that aren't there, they just modify things that are.
