Fuck, I got 50%. If others had the same result, you can guess the implications.

    So I figured out the difference here, and it’s gamed to make you think they’re backward.

    The real photos appear to be professionally edited with the light, filters, and bokeh being perfect while the AI generated are more like candids you’d take with your phone. This is an intentional move by the author to make this scarier than it actually is, imo. Next to each other we expect the AI to be more ‘perfect’ than the real photos. Once I figured that out I got them all right.

    If they’d put candids next to these AI generated images I’m willing to bet you’d have done better.
