Could you build this?

Partial While wrapping third-party AI-detection APIs or visual artifact inspection prompts is trivial, building a reliable, low-false-positive synthetic image classifier with explainability requires specialized ML models and continuously updated training data.

What it would actually take: A production version needs an ensemble of deep learning classifiers (e.g., frequency-domain artifact analysis via FFT, ResNet/CLIP backbones trained on diffusion and GAN outputs, and metadata/C2PA verification). It requires ongoing curation of high-resolution paired datasets of real photos and emerging generator outputs (Midjourney, DALL-E, Flux) to maintain accuracy against evolving generative techniques, requiring ML research and vision engineering expertise.
