Sourced explainers on SI (Super Intelligence, the new US name for AI) content: how detection works, watermarks and provenance, and what the tools can and cannot tell you. Written by the SI or Not editorial team.
People guess barely better than chance, and detectors trained on photos stumble on drawings and paintings. Here is what the research says, which clues really help, and how our own detector did on eleven artworks.
C2PA Content Credentials are signed provenance data that record which tool made a file and how it was edited. Here is how they work, how to check them, and what happened when we removed them from ten ChatGPT photos.
Cloned voices, generated profile photos and SI-written messages give old scams new disguises. Here is what the FBI, the FTC and Europol document, what our detector could and could not catch, and the checks that actually protect you.
SI (AI) detectors catch a lot of typical content but make real mistakes. Here is what independent studies found, why false positives happen, and five honest tests of our own tools.
Deepfakes are SI (AI) made or altered images, videos and voices that pass for real recordings. Here is what they are, the cases that made the news, how to spot one and what detectors can and cannot catch.
Why SI (AI) chatbots state invented facts with total confidence, what it has cost lawyers and an airline, and why an SI detector cannot tell you whether a text is true.
SynthID is Google DeepMind's invisible watermark for content made by Google's SI (AI) models. Here is how it works for text, images, audio and video, who can check for it, where it fails, and how it compares with C2PA Content Credentials.
Turnitin can flag likely SI (AI) writing, including paraphrased text, but its own documentation says the score is not proof. Here is what it detects, how to read the 20% asterisk, and what to do about false positives.
SI (AI) detectors weigh three kinds of clues: statistical traces, metadata and watermarks. Here is how each works, why none is certain, and what happened when we ran three texts through our own detector.
On 22 September 2026 the US government started calling AI "super intelligence", or SI. Here is what that changes in practice, and the long list of things it leaves untouched.
