Low-effort content produced with generative AI and posted at volume — synthetic images passed off as photographs, fabricated videos, and machine-written articles. It matters because it spreads faster than it can be checked, and because a synthetic image of a real event is the most common form of social-media misinformation.

How are items on this tracker classified?

Items are collected from public sources and classified automatically, with a confidence score and the specific detection signals recorded for each. Only items above a confidence threshold are listed. Automated classification can be wrong; the listed signals are there so a reader can judge for themselves rather than take the label on trust.

Does listing an item here mean it is proven fake?

No. This tracker records that content shows signals of being AI-generated and that it is circulating. It is not a verdict on any person, event, or claim. FAXTR surfaces evidence rather than issuing judgements.

How can I check an image myself?

Look for Content Credentials (C2PA) attached to the file, run a reverse image search to see whether the picture predates the event it is attributed to, and check whether established outlets report the same claim. FAXTR publishes step-by-step guides for each of these checks.

📊 Nossa metodologia de detecção

Cada item é cruzado com a API Google Fact Check, nosso banco de dados de fontes em 11 idiomas, busca reversa de imagens e sinais de detecção de IA (artefatos, alucinações, verificação de origem). A pontuação de confiança reflete o consenso entre essas camadas.

O que este rastreador procura

Padrões ilustrativos — estes são exemplos, não itens rastreados. A lista acima é o que foi de fato coletado e classificado.

Exemplo
Fake disaster photos generated to fundraise scam donations
AI-generated images of recent natural disasters circulate with QR codes leading to scam donation pages. Reverse image search returns zero original sources — telltale of generative output.
Sinais: No reverse-image matches · Unrealistic crowd physics · Identical generative artifacts across 'different' photos
Exemplo
Deepfake celebrity 'endorsements' for crypto schemes
Synthetic videos of well-known figures appearing to endorse new crypto tokens. Voice cloning + face swap on real interview footage. Most failures: blinking irregularity, lip-sync drift over 30s.
Sinais: Lip-sync drift after 30s · Inconsistent blinking rate · No matching real interview
Exemplo
AI-generated 'news articles' mimicking real outlets
Articles styled to look like NYT/BBC publications with fabricated quotes and statistics. URL spoofs real domain with single character change. Output text shows GPT-typical phrasing patterns.
Sinais: Domain typosquatting · Hallucinated source citations · Statistical claims without primary source
Exemplo
Fake science 'discoveries' with AI-generated lab photos
Posts claim breakthrough discoveries (free energy, cancer cure) paired with AI-rendered 'lab equipment' photos. Generative artifacts in glassware refraction and inconsistent text on signage.
Sinais: Glassware refraction errors · Garbled text on signage · Lab safety conventions violated

Os itens são coletados de fontes públicas e classificados automaticamente. Uma listagem registra que o conteúdo apresenta sinais de ter sido gerado por IA e está circulando — não é um veredicto sobre nenhuma pessoa, evento ou alegação. A classificação automática pode estar errada; os sinais são publicados para que você mesmo possa julgar.
