| contents | Recent advances in visual generative models have enabled the creation of highly realistic, fully AI-generated images without relying on real source content. While beneficial for many applications, these models also pose significant societal risks, as they can be easily exploited to produce convincing Deepfakes. Detecting them represents a foundational yet challenging problem in AI media forensics, requiring detectors to reliably extract the inherent artifacts imprinted by generative architectures. In this Review, we provide a systematic overview of fully AI-generated image detection. Following the standard detector design pipeline, we focus on two key components: dataset construction and artifact extraction. We analyze how dataset design influences the generalization and robustness of learned artifacts, and categorize existing artifact extraction methods based on the primary inductive priors leveraged to isolate artifacts. Within this framework, we systematically review existing works. Finally, we highlight open problems and envision several future directions for developing more robust and generalizable detectors.
