Adobe Firefly AI-generated image sample report
The origin record identifies AI-generated content.
- What FauxScan found
- The file's signed C2PA Content Credentials passed validation. The validated record declares AI-generated content. It lists gemini-flash as the model. The visual detector favors a camera photo, but this estimate does not override the signed declaration.
- C2PA and provenance
- C2PA was present, embedded, and valid. The manifest names Adobe Firefly as generator and producer, identifies Adobe Inc. as issuer, and includes an AI model reference for gemini-flash.
- Metadata
- No camera EXIF metadata was present, which means the file did not carry normal camera make, model, capture, or GPS context. The PNG was analyzed with native pixel-domain residual checks instead of JPEG ELA.
- Why it matters
- This sample shows how a visual detector can conflict with a signed origin record. The validated record declares AI generation, while the detector favors a camera photo. The detector estimate does not override that signed declaration.
- Limitations
- Validation supports the signed record; it does not establish scene truth or signer trust. The report does not prove where the image was first published or whether it was used deceptively. Residual analysis is a supporting signal, not standalone proof of manipulation.
