Candidate descriptions affect image comparisons

The wording of candidate labels matters. In an original catalog experiment, compare an image with several plausible descriptions, including an ambiguous option. Review whether the result follows the object or merely the background.

Similarity cannot establish image provenance

A high similarity score does not establish a fact about an image’s origin, date, or authenticity. Use metadata and independent evidence for those questions.

THE TAKEAWAY

What to remember

Keep provenance checks separate.
