Most AI image detectors work fine in the lab and fail on social media.
The reason is simple. Real photos get compressed, resized and re-uploaded again and again, and detectors trained on clean images read that damage as a sign of fakery. A real photo that has passed through a few platforms often gets flagged as AI-generated.
AIRealNet-2 is built to fix that. It is the upgrade to our original Modotte/AIRealNet, trained on images collected from platforms like Instagram and X, so it has seen the kinds of quality loss and compression real images go through online.
The training set has 98k images, split 50/50 between AI-generated and real, so the model has no class bias to lean on. Personal photos were excluded by design, including AI-edited ones.
The architecture is unchanged: a SwinV2 Tiny backbone with a binary classification head, about 0.2B parameters, working at 256x256 resolution. It stays fast and easy to deploy for research or production.
