Is it real or is it AI?

Artificial Intelligence has officially reached the breakfast table — and it’s blowing our minds.

We’re now living in a time where AI-generated images are so realistic, it’s becoming nearly impossible to tell them apart from actual photographs. The textures, the lighting, the syrup dripping down the sides — every pixel looks good enough to eat. But here’s the twist: some of these pancakes never existed.

Thanks to advanced tools like DALL·E 3 and Midjourney, AI is mimicking the real world with stunning precision. The difference between a photo snapped at your favorite diner and one created entirely by code is razor thin — and that’s exactly what I’m showing in this visual challenge.

So, can you spot which pancakes are real and which are AI-made? Don’t be surprised if you get fooled. The line between tech and reality is thinner than maple syrup on a hot griddle.
