A new research paper highlights a significant flaw in AI-generated video detection benchmarks, where detection scores are heavily influenced by the origin of the real video clips used in the datasets. Researchers Mert Cakiroglu and colleagues found that simply analyzing frame types, motion vectors, or appearance can lead to high detection rates, not because the models are robust, but because the real clips are sourced from specific, identifiable collections. This 'corpus identity' issue means that current benchmarks may not accurately reflect real-world detection capabilities. The study proposes methods to mitigate this data leakage and suggests that benchmark scores should be interpreted alongside their performance on diverse datasets and false-positive rates on unseen real collections.
