In the world of fake news and fake online profiles, it’s quite useful to know whether or not the person whose profile you’re looking at is real.

One of the ways of getting to know this is by checking if their profile picture is real or AI-generated.

This is exactly where our tool comes in handy.

All you need to do is go to the Chrome web store, type in “fake profile detector,” and install the extension.
