+1 for training parents' tech literacy.

I dunno if/how this could be taught, but I feel like half the battle is critical thinking with an adversarial mindset towards media -- who would make this, why would they want to show me, do I see anything that makes this impossible, is it worth engaging with in the first place, can I fact check this.

Yep, my thoughts exactly. But the consumer rarely thinks critically when looking at ads, not to mention regular social media posts and the Big Corp has no money in proving what assets are AI generated.

I'm trying to gamify the training to make the experience more appealing.

I store a "proof URL" on the backend, but I don't know if it makes sense to serve it to the end user. Also, a Reddit discussion is not necessarily a proof one wants. A fingerprint would be better, but not all images are generated with Google. That's another problem to be solved.
