A new research paper proposes a two-stage model for understanding how humans detect AI-generated image edits, differentiating between attention capture and judgment accuracy. The study, involving 59 participants and an eye-tracking experiment, found that edit area primarily influences attention capture, while semantic plausibility affects judgment accuracy and the likelihood of overlooking edits. A Transformer-based generative eye-movement model was developed to computationally operationalize the attention-capture stage, showing strong correlation with attention levels and modest performance in predicting overlooked edits.
