This project tests whether people can tell the difference between real photos and images made by artificial intelligence (AI), with age as a factor. Participants under 18 and over 30 looked at a mix of real and AI-generated images and guessed which ones were created by AI. The results show that recognizing AI images can be difficult and that age and technology use may affect how well people can tell the difference.

This is a commendable project, presenting an intriguing and timely investigation into AI image recognition. The experiment has a clear purpose, a structured methodology, and strong data collection practices.
Interesting, real-world question, and your results connect to online safety.
Nice job collecting data from 27 people and comparing age groups.
