I played quite a bit with AI photo detection tools, and they definitely trigger on high-quality portraits with bokeh and specific color mood-setting combinations that are overused by generative models (e.g., orange-teal or orange-purple). AI text detectors are not perfect, but they are right most of the time. These photo tools are absolutely atrocious in comparison. I'm sure it looks good in Meta's metrics, but they almost certainly just have a detector that tells middling photos from good ones, and confuses that for AI. As it happens, for user uploads, it overlaps pretty strongly, but it's still wrong.

Of course in this case, the author appears to be reacting to tech that literally just reads the content credential metadata that Photoshop embeds when you use its generative AI features. The complaint seems to be more that “made with AI” implies (to him) “created from whole cloth with generative AI,” not “created or edited with AI” as the tag’s tooltip explains.
