I think this is the confirmation bias trap a lot of people fall into; higher quality, hard to detect AI is already ubiquitous but because it's hard to detect people just don't clock it.
"I can accurately detect 100% of AI generated images that I recognise as being AI", if you will.
I guess the majority of people do low-effort generation that doesn't perturb a default style of a network enough, so it stays blatantly noticeable. The percentage of "super-recognizers" who notice almost all AI-generated images is around 1-2%. It could be that you are one of them, of course.
