People saying this is AI, I’m intrigued by the fact that I can’t tell if it is or not, and I’m hoping this leads to a world where we stop paying attention to photos and videos over time, sure there’s legal repercussions and whatnot both good and bad, but maybe we start valuing human interactions more. I don’t think I’m expressing my thoughts well enough, but it could be that AI when it’s more developed could lead us to assuming it’s all fake and not caring about the online world so much.
How can you not tell? Man’s hand is clipping into things, no tshirt is that low cut, his magic cigarette isn’t lit and that is certainly not how you spell Coca Cola.
All of those things are immediately noticeable, they jump out at you, but there’s probably a billion other tells that it’s AI once you stop to process it.
The answer to your question is in the last part of your comment, once you stop to process it So people literally look at pictures as a whole for just a second or two and only notice one or two key details, like human faces and then either move on (especially on social media)
I think most people are still not used to thinking pictures might be AI generated especially when the face, the first thing we generally focus on, looks pretty solid. AI is getting better and it’s hard to keep up.
The straw sticking out of the fries was what got me tho :P
McDonald’s and Jack in the Box have seriously been wildin’ with their prices lately. If I wanted to pay $20 for a meal, I’d go to a sit down restaurant.
Bones, either your prompt editing is getting better or you’re being a lot more choosy about what to post. This is way better than the other one.
Window glare is inconsistent with shadows on subject, kid, tree
Maybe that’s a hand, or maybe dad lost some fingers somewhere
Chimney held up by some dubious looking carpentry
Grass is too green under an oak of that size, IMO. Bark is also kind of inconsistent.
Red spots on trunk that read like a scanner photosensor getting blown out due to glare from white areas on a photo print. But no part of a tree trunk is that white, and there are no other artifacts, like where we see glare on the window.
The front-door delete is actually not the weirdest part. I can see someone actually doing this. It’s just not likely.
See, that one looks legit. Film grain, depth-of-field, zero anachronisms, and recognizable mascots on… a happymeal placemat? Even the prices look right, even though I can’t make out the menu items specifically. Also, repeated things that AI routinely screws up are correct: cashier’s fingers, sizing of cups behind her, drink fountain looks real, and the banners are evenly spaced and the same size.
I clearly recall that McDonalds had these disposable thin-foil-metal trays with a company logo on 'em. But they had a habit of wandering off, and were never evenly distributed to all the tables in the dining room. I have no idea about the glass ones in the image search above.
Edit: looks like the paper water cup is the ashtray for this gentleman’s meal.
Edit2: I had a big dumb and this is not real. Carry on.
