Opinion: The Potential of AI Writing and Image Detection is Underestimated
Aizkmusic · x · 2026-08-06
The author expresses growing optimism about the future of AI writing and image detection technologies.
While acknowledging the tech will never be 100% perfect—and admitting he considered it impossible just a year ago—he has completely changed his mind. He argues by analogy: since getting AI to solve frontier math problems is actually easier than detecting AI-generated content, there's no reason we can't master the latter. AI has consistently pushed boundaries previously deemed impossible, and AI detection should be no different.
