"Google is making it easier for Gemini users to detect at least some AI-generated content. From today, you'll be able to use the Gemini app to determine if an image was either created or edited by a Google AI tool, simply by asking Gemini "Is this AI-generated?" While the initial launch is limited to images, Google says verification of video and audio will come "soon," and it also intends to expand the functionality beyond the Gemini app, including into Search."
"The more important expansion will come further down the line, when Google extends verification to support industry-wide C2PA content credentials. The initial image verification is based only on SynthID, Google's own invisible AI watermarking, but an expansion to C2PA would make it possible to detect the source of content generated by a wider variety of AI tools and creative software, including OpenAI's Sora. Google also announced that images generated by its Nano Banana Pro model, also revealed today, will have C2PA metadata embedded."
Gemini now lets users ask "Is this AI-generated?" to determine whether an image was created or edited by a Google AI tool. Image verification currently relies on SynthID, Google's invisible AI watermark. Verification for video and audio is planned, and functionality will expand beyond the Gemini app into Search. Future support for industry-wide C2PA content credentials would enable detection of content from many AI tools and creative software, including OpenAI's Sora. Images generated by the Nano Banana Pro model will include embedded C2PA metadata. Manual verification helps, but platform-level automatic flagging is necessary for broad effectiveness.
