The project is a dormant research artifact with 0 stars and 0 forks, last updated nearly 8 years ago. While the concept of using 'Photoshop Battles' for image provenance is clever—providing a natural 'ground truth' of manipulation chains—the project has no momentum or community. In the current landscape, image forensics and provenance have moved toward hardware-level standards like C2PA (Adobe, Microsoft) or large-scale synthetic datasets used in NIST's Media Forensics Challenges. The dataset provided here is likely too small and outdated compared to modern computer vision requirements. It lacks any technical moat as the scraping logic is trivial to replicate and the data is static. It remains a historical curiosity rather than a viable tool for modern competitive intelligence.
