Has anyone tried training a neural net to distinguish between photographed vs AI generated images?
Of course, you will need to remove exifs or other metadata, but this sounds like the kind of domain that NNs are good at.

For everyone else though, the people making common tools everyone uses explicitly want their images to be easy to automatically ID as fake. And, the users largely prefer it that way too.
The toolmakers might have a mild incentive to tag images generated with their tool to prevent too easily creating these 'fakes' or just for analytics purposes so they can see how their output is spreading.
But regardless, it's a fools errand like the other poster said. Anyone that is serious about tricking the mass media will strip out the watermark or use a different tool.
