A first-of-its-kind report has discovered that altering the ingredients list or manufacturing methods of widely used medication can really cut back on carbon emissions. They found a reduction of 26 million tons, enough to cancel out the whole carbon footprint of the city of Geneva for a decade.

This will help users identify images generated using these AI tools, clearly demystifying them from actual/real pictures.
