How To Spot AI Mockups When Using Mockups with Your Print on Demand Designs

Welcome to my limited series on Print on Demand! In our thirteenth episode, I discuss ways to spot AI mockup photographs. Here's the biggest ways to spot them!

• Hands Look Wonky
• No Models Look The Same
• Something is "Off"
• Everything is Overly Smooth
• Look Closely at Each Item

NOTE: I am not here to bash AI. As a longtime photographer, though, I thought it would be helpful to address the ways I spot AI images.

Wanna know this episode in one quote? I got you!

"When you’re working with mockups, know that sometimes things are going to vary. For example, the color of a sand sweatshirt is going to look different in a brightly lit photo with a white backdrop than a sand sweatshirt on a dark background lit with a flash. With AI, though, we’re not talking about differences like this. Instead, we are talking about ways to spot AI when looking for your mockups. 

As a mockup seller, I’ve noticed an uptick of messages where customers wanted to double check that no AI was used in my mockups. I’ve also noticed an increase in conversations where my customers have felt disappointed when they bought another seller’s mockup only to realize later that it is completely AI generated. Here's the ways I spot 'em! "
