I’ve noticed a lot of the time you can tell an image is AI generated because it has a shiny/glossy lighting look to it.

Has anyone figured out why this is the case?

People have started training Lora's for Flux that look pretty pretty real. This was a good recent example: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/1ero4ts/fi...

Those photos look impressively realistic, but the skin has exactly the wax-like sheen that I think OP is talking about.

Ask HN: Why are AI generated images so shiny/glossy?
