This photo is currently the top post in the r/pics community on Reddit, with close to 50k upvotes.
I have my suspicions about the photo and wanted other people’s opinions about it.
Is this AI?
You must log in or # to comment.
Are we concerned that the image is AI or that the content of the posters is not real? As others have said, the image doesn’t have the usual tells of AI, but also there are plenty of articles that confirm the content of the posters. Lorenzo was indeed murdered by ICE and was a father of 3. Who was Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, through the words of his son
Almost certainly not. Way too much detail and missing all of the obvious tells.
I don’t see any obvious tells, but why do you ask?
Just a feeling.
It would probably be easier to Photoshop this than to AI generate it and get all the posters looking right.
@grok is this photo AI ?
I looked at Lorenzo for a long time, because I felt something avout him was unusual. I finally realized that his ears are not visible/maybe he doesn’t have any which surprised me due to his short hair. Likely the reason why the posters feel off.
The rest of the photo looks quite real to me, with the cigarette buds, grunge etc.
No, AI can’t really replicate the same thing multiple times in the same picture. They would have slight variations.
It is also not photoshopped, since the creases in the paper are too detailed around the letters.
The reason why it looks off is because the bottom right corners of the 2 right posters are curling up, giving a weird perspective on the letters. As if you were looking straight on.
I believe so. If you zoom in on the letters, it’s inconsistent with the capital R font between posters, which can’t really be explained by the angle, it’s a bit thinner or thicker in places:
Also, if you adjust for the angle of the posters, it’s not done a good job of keeping the face and text consistent at that angle. In these next photos I’ve edited the image to account for perspective so it’s as if the left and right closest posters are “face on”.
It’s getting hard to tell nowadays though, I could be wrong but I’m voting this is 80% likelihood of being A.I.
The paper is wrinkled.
it’s composed in a way that’s both really good and something AI probably won’t do
Do people think AI is magic? There’s no way in hell AI could make such high res images without fucking up any traces at all.
