AI-generated images of white faces are often perceived as more realistic than actual photographs, potentially enhancing misinformation risks.

Participants in studies showed an overconfidence in identifying AI-created faces, highlighting a vulnerability to misinformation.

Advancements in AI have led to the creation of photorealistic faces that closely mimic average human proportions, making them less distinctive and more deceptive.

The tendency to train AI predominantly on images of white faces exacerbates the issue, as it may not properly represent diversity and could lead to biases.

Concerns are rising about the use of hyper-realistic AI-generated images in spreading false and misleading messages online.
