What gives AI animals away
Fur and whiskers
AI fur is often too soft and even, and whiskers start or stop in mid-air or melt into the fur.
Eyes
Look at the pupils: a cat’s are slits, a goat’s are bars. AI mixes shapes and gives the two eyes different reflections.
Paws, legs and claws
Count the toes and legs. AI animals sometimes have an extra leg, merged paws or claws in odd places.
Collars and leashes
Buckles that make no sense, leashes that end nowhere, tags with unreadable text.
Background animals
A second animal in the back is often deformed: two heads, half a body, or blended into the grass.
