scripts/ai_score.py trains a gradient-boosted classifier on labels
derived from the scan_dataset metadata (C2PA AI generators, TC260,
local pipelines vs camera/screenshot/editor output) and scores every
file from pixel and container statistics alone, so metadata-stripped
files still get a score. Temporal holdout on the production corpus:
AUC 0.966 / AP 0.988. CLIP ViT-L/14 was evaluated as an alternative
and lost on both accuracy (0.82) and cost, so the model uses the
structural features the scanner already collects; scoring is CPU-only
and I/O-bound.
