đź§© Can AI Images Tell You Who Created Them?
Lately, I’ve been asked: “Does AI-generated text in an image reveal the creator?”The short answer: no — at least not yet.
🔍 What Really Happens
  • Most public AI tools (MidJourney, DALL·E, Stable Diffusion, DeepAI, etc.) do not embed creator info inside the image.
  • Any text you see in the picture is just part of the design — not a digital signature.
  • Metadata (EXIF/PNG info) sometimes includes tool references, but it’s often stripped when downloaded or screenshotted.
đźš§ Where Things Are Headed
  • Companies like OpenAI and Google DeepMind are working on invisible watermarking and cryptographic signatures to track AI content.
  • Right now, though, it’s mostly research. The majority of AI-generated memes, comics, and ads circulating online can’t be traced back to the exact creator.
âś… What This Means for Us
  • Transparency is coming — expect more AI tools to include hidden traceability features in the next year or two.
  • For now, if you want credit or proof of authorship, you’ll need to keep your own records (prompt logs, original exports, or watermark your own work).
👉 What do you think? Should AI platforms be required to watermark every piece of content for accountability, or should creators have the freedom to decide?
