## What is Faux Real?

One image is real. One is AI. Play five daily duels, spot the real image, and learn the visual tell you missed.

One is real. One is AI. Can you tell?

Faux Real is the daily game that trains the one skill the internet now demands: telling what's real from what a machine made up. Every day you get five fresh duels. Each is a head-to-head — a genuine, public-domain photograph beside an AI-generated fake. Your job is simple: tap the real one.

It takes about a minute. Then you find out how you did, see the "tell" that gave the fake away, and watch your streak grow. Miss a day and the streak resets — so you'll be back tomorrow.

WHY PEOPLE GET HOOKED
- A new set every day — quick, and never the same twice.
- Streaks that are worth protecting.
- "The tell" after every round — the little giveaway that trains your eye for next time.
- Trace it — tap through to the real source of every genuine item. Nothing is faked or hidden.
- Challenge a friend with one link and see who spots more.

EXPERT MODE (optional)
Think you're good at this? Turn on Expert Mode and commit a confidence level before each answer — Hunch, Fairly sure, or Certain. We score how well-calibrated you actually are with a real accuracy report. Most people are far more confident than correct. Expert Mode shows you the truth, one day at a time.

HONEST BY DESIGN
- Every "real" item is a genuine public-domain or openly-licensed work, and we show you the source.
- We never use real people's faces or voices, and never put fake words in anyone's mouth.
- No politics, no news, no medical claims — just images, art, and clever fakes.
- Early on, some crowd stats come from a benchmark dataset (clearly labeled); live percentages switch on once enough people have played.

PRIVACY
No account. No sign-up. Your streak and stats live on your phone, not our servers. We don't track you.

Can you tell? Play today's duel.
