This study examines whether college music education students can distinguish between human and AI-rendered piano performances.

Results reveal detection accuracy (52%) was not significantly different from chance, and confidence ratings showed no correlation with accuracy, suggesting students cannot reliably distinguish AI-rendered from human performances.
