Imperfect AI food was more unsettling than highly realistic or stylized images. The realistic group also used generated images; this was not simply real dishes versus AI dishes.\n\nA study published in 2024 asked 297 UK participants to rate real photos and DALL-E 3 reconstructions, with absent, correct or reversed origin labels. AI pictures scored higher without labels; with correct labels, the overall difference was not statistically significant, although real ultra-processed foods scored higher.
