Teaching Users How to Identify AI-Generated Images
This module had me thinking about AI and how often I find myself trying to teach my Facebook friends how to identify AI generated images. I decided to research if public libraries are already doing education around spotting AI imagery. Here’s what I found:
- Haddonfield Public Library: That Can’t Be Real: Identifying AI-Generated Images
- That Light Looks Weird: Teaching the basics of image literacy
- Academic Library example: Test your ability to identify misinformation at Falk Library
After reading about what libraries are currently doing, I brainstormed more ideas.
Here’s a great example of an infographic I found from one of my favorite authors, Aiden Thomas!
(Unfortunately, it appears that test doesn’t work anymore but you can see the answers which are educational!)
@Megan Those library examples you shared are good ones! I am glad libraries are taking such a thoughtful approach to instruction on AI related topics.
This is such a relevant topic! It’s great to see libraries like Haddonfield’s are already tackling AI image identification. I especially appreciate the “That Light Looks Weird” approach – focusing on the basics of image literacy makes it less intimidating. That Aiden Thomas infographic is awesome too; visuals are super helpful. I’m curious to see what other creative educational methods emerge as AI evolves. Thanks for sharing these resources!
