I believe this image was later revealed to be AI, if you look at the men in the background they’re duplicates of each other, down to their shoes. Something AI does to save computing power.
That sounds like a dubious claim. Do you have a source for it?
The shoes part is the most plausible reason for this image being, if not AI, at least heavily doctored. 5 pairs of shoes, all the same style (canvas with white rubber sole), three of them with the rear foot at the exact same angle with the exact same bend… The odds of that happening in real life are astronomically low. Also look at the odd posture of the person in the middle of the rear row - no one walks like that on a flat surface, and Their front foot is the only one of the group with a super dark “shadow” under it.
It’s basically impossible to definitively say something is A.I. or not anymore. I like doing this kind of detective work though so here’s my analysis.
- At first overall glance, it gave me an A.I. generated “vibe” that I can’t fully explain. I know this doesn’t count for much, but it counts for me.
- If you zoom into the pelvis of the guy in the far back, it’s a bit fucked up. It’s like his body is angled to be walking to the right, but his legs are walking to the left. See attached image.
- The reflections on the floor aren’t quite right. The pot plant on the left is especially reflected at a strange angle, given the rest of the reflections. In general it’s like it’s rendered the reflections the way shadows would work.
- At that shallow angle, there should be more reflections of things in the background visible, like the men walking. These are completely missing and it’s just showing an empty sky reflection when there’s even buildings in the way.
