In early 2026, I ran a simple experiment with my LinkedIn network – post a series of images and ask “Which one is AI?” This sparked a massive conversation with the “Glamour Shots” post alone generating over 30 comments and reaching over 8,000 users, far beyond my immediate circle.

Each entry starts with a simple question: which image is AI and which one is real?
The posts compare real photos from my life with AI recreations, followed by a transparent reveal and the exact prompt used. The goal isn’t to catch AI out. It’s to see how easily context, familiarity, and presentation shape what we believe at a glance.
