AI summary: A photograph taken by Suzi Dougherty was disqualified from a competition held by Charing Cross Photo in Sydney, Australia, as judges suspected it was AI-generated. Despite the image metadata not confirming this, the judges trusted their instincts and rejected the photo. After confirming with Dougherty that the photo was genuine, the store offered to waive her entry fee for the next competition. The incident highlights the increasing difficulty in distinguishing between AI-generated and real-life images.
