This is how to spot AI-generated 3D models

Identifying AI-generated content in art and design is increasingly challenging, especially with 3D assets. Epic Games' Fab store currently lacks requirements for tagging AI-generated models, leading to potential misuse. A 3D artist, Liz Edwards, has shared insights on how to spot these models, which can be subpar for game development.

Edwards highlights specific indicators of AI-generated models, such as unusual shapes and high polygon counts. For instance, a penguin model from Fab exhibited odd features and artifacts from 2D images. She also notes that AI models often lack symmetry, merging into blob-like forms, which can be seen in her examples on Bluesky.

• AI-generated 3D models can be identified by specific visual indicators.

• Epic Games' Fab store lacks tagging requirements for AI-generated models.
