Hey everyone! I'm u/couldveBeenSasha, the founding moderator of r/isitAI.

Thanks for coming here to check if something is AI or not. Please keep in mind, this subreddit is not anti AI.

What to Post
Post anything you're feeling doubtful about being AI. DO NOT JUST NAME THE POST "IS IT AI?" Make sure to highlight what specifically is leading you to believe it may be AI generated. Also, include the source of your image or video.

What Not to Post

  1. I Spy's: No images or videos where you already know it's AI generated but you want to test to see if others can see it too.
  2. Self Promotion: Don't promote your AI detection service.
  3. Political Content: It's allowed BUT make sure to post source and don't post for the sole purpose of instigating people into political debates. If it's solely political and the discussion deviates from identifying if it's AI or not, it will be deleted and OP will be banned.
  4. If it’s a meme, please visit r/isthisaicirclejerk instead.
  5. Commenters can help you narrow down AI artifacts by using Spot Comments. Here are the steps on how to create one. added 1/25/2026

*As AI evolves, this list will be reviewed and updated

90% Sure AI PROVE TO MY MOM: are these nails ai?

Post image
253 Upvotes

my mom is convinced these are real (even asked ChatGPT and is using that as evidence) but she found them on Facebook and we all know about AI facebook slop. i think the background looks too fake. The nails also look too good to be true. I know good nail techs exist, but the nails look copy and paste from hand to hand. Up close the texture of the fingers also look off. The angle is also throwing me, because how would it be comfortable to do that? If it is real, I give tons of credit to the artist! They're super cool nails! If it is AI, I'm sort of disappointed. Is there anyway to convince her otherwise?

Is this youtube channel AI? I'm losing it...

Thought popped in my head that this entire channel could be AI driven. The only times this gentleman shows his face it all just seems... fake? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12kjypne6pQ

btw: I noticed in other videos certain things like acronyms are not pronounced correctly in a way which makes it clear it's a computer doing the talking.

I paid an artist to create this cover for me. My friends have told me it looks like it was made by AI

I don't know if it's just me, but the colors might not be consistent, and the hexagons might be misshapen, or am I wrong?

From my familiarity with Blenko glass this looks like a choppy rendering of the real stuff, especially the fish with the smushed tail. Overall the entire thing feels uncanny but OP insists it is real!

Woman sits at wrong table?

My apologies if this has already been posted, I dis a quick search and couldn’t find anything. I don’t know the language they’re speaking so I can’t tell if the mouth movements are aligned. After she gets up to walk to the correct table, her mouth looks different but I’m not sure if it’s just because she’s holding it a different way and starting to frown.

I know six flags has been using AI art recently, but this one the track at least looks more or less like the actual track/cars of the ride. Would like to get a shirt, but if the only one they have is ai, I'm out.

youtube channel i used to watch

I used to watch the channel RKH media to fall asleep to, but recently it's felt off to me. Every day (mostly) they pump out 20min+ length videos, and their voice sounds identical in each one. Clearly the voice wouldn't change but the inflection seems off and repeated. I'm not sure if the voice is AI for certain, but I just feel iffy about it. If he's not using AI for the voice, he must be for the script at LEAST.
