Fake or real? Try our AI image detector
Hey HN! We're Ayman and Dylan, co-founders of Nuanced (https://www.nuanced.dev/). We want to share a tool we’re working on to detect fake and real images: https://trial.nuanced.dev/demo/. The UI is bare-bones but you’ll get the idea. Drag or upload an image and our tool will display the probabilities with which it thinks that the image might be AI-generated or not. If you want, you can click “No, it’s AI” to confirm that the image was AI-generated, or “No, it’s real” to confirm that the image was not AI-generated. Why we’re working on this: as AI-generated…
In plain words
Nuanced is an AI image detector tool that analyzes uploaded images to determine whether they are artificially generated or authentic. Users can drag or upload an image and receive probability scores indicating the likelihood of AI generation. The tool allows users to provide feedback by confirming whether images are real or AI-generated, helping train the detection model. It is designed for anyone concerned with identifying synthetic media and combating potential fraud and misinformation.

Hey HN! We're Ayman and Dylan, co-founders of Nuanced (https://www.nuanced.dev/). We want to share a tool we’re working on to detect fake and real images: https://trial.nuanced.dev/demo/. The UI is bare-bones but you’ll get the idea. Drag or upload an image and our tool will display the probabilities with which it thinks that the image might be AI-generated or not. If you want, you can click “No, it’s AI” to confirm that the image was AI-generated, or “No, it’s real” to confirm that the image was not AI-generated. Why we’re working on this: as AI-generated images continue to blur the line between real and artificial and their adoption and quality rises, so too does the risk for fraud and misinformation. Not being able to trust what you see online threatens whatever level of "realness" or authenticity online material has. Companies like dating apps, news sites, and trust and safety teams have a growing need to distinguish AI-generated images from authentic ones. The models we built are trained on various architectures, such as Dalle-3, Midjourney, and SDXL, with continuous integration of data from the latest AI image generators. Our technology can detect deepfakes and verify user profile images, documents, IDs, or media images. Additionally, it can detect fake or counterfeit products, services, or experiences being marketed on e-commerce platforms. We hope it’s fun and would be very interested in any cases it gets wrong, as well as whatever else you’d like to ask or say!

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
