You're conflating two different things. The generic "AI detectors" are what are garbage and misreport all the time.

That's not what this is. Anything made by the main modern AI models like ChatGPT have a hidden design in them which can be read back by their own identification system (SynthID). These ARE 100% accurate as they are just reading back the embedded code. The only catch is that they will also flag if the same AI model was used to upscale them, but that's less likely to be an issue in these cases.
