What characteristics signal this to you? I took a glance at the lawyers'* photos and can't easily determine that they're AI generated. I probably wouldn't give it a second thought if I didn't know ahead of time that they were generated.

I'm not great at this but in general - Eyes exactly centered in the middle of the photo - Earlobes/ears are different, e.g. attached vs unattached lobe on either side - Boundaries of hair are confused/fuzzy

  Along with that, the single texture background always blurry, sometimes with discontinuities are usually a good give away too.

The teeth and lips is an easy one, noticable on the "Brian Dodd" image. "Chris Donnelly" has weird skin texture around his mouth.

It's the typical GANS face layout, with a blurry background, eyes centered and cropped to the face. It's certainly possible those are could be real people, but in my experience law firms usually have upper-body shots of the lawyers with their arms folded, or standing together as a team or with a client. I wouldn't catch these at first glance, but the older gentleman specifically stands out to me with the 1. tuft of hair above the right eyebrow 2. teeth far offset from center 3. soap-bubble colored noise around the hair features These aren't unusual on their own (except #3 maybe) but all together they make the photo seem fake.

  A really easy clue (as is the case on that site) is if the location of the eyes are aligned almost perfectly as if to the pixel.

  The crop is super unusual for professional photos. No photographer is going to cut into the subject's chin

I remember seeing a guide on how to detect generated faces, and the signs to look for were: * glasses looking weird (ie. the inside of the frame not matching with the rest of the face, or optical effects not being replicated) * hair * teeth I looked at the pictures and they look reasonably real. Maybe the neural networks gotten better?

  the follow-ups and improvements have been impressive for sure, and posted here at some point.

"Kara Morgan" has mismatched earrings. That's typical.

Hannah Shields' left (our right) earring is particularly egregious.

This one is easy to tell. Look at her earrings, they don't match and the one on the right side of the photo seems to be blending in with something https://taylorwilsonsmith.com/attorneys/hannah-shields/ https://taylorwilsonsmith.com/attorneys/hannah-shields/

  Also I thought this was a woman: “ Hannah has spent the past twelve years making New York City his home.”
