Could you build this?

Partial The browser extension and right-click UI are easy to build, but the core verdict depends on an AI-image detector whose accuracy is hard to achieve and keep current.

What it would actually take: The extension would be a Manifest V3 package that sends the image to a backend running a detection model, either a commercial detection API or an open model fine-tuned on current generators. The hard part is classifier accuracy against new generators and compressed social-media images, which requires ML research, labeled datasets, and ongoing retraining.
