Stock photos were so much better than AI crap for cheap header pictures
Idk, is probably good that a real teenage girl isn't the face of random shit.
Who's to say this isn't a real person? Generative AI has been known to sometimes spit out content that's nearly identical to a piece of its training data.
What makes you say this image is AI generated? It just looks like a stock photo to me.
Those hands aren't possible, or at least I hope not.
This is the most obvious part, but also under the same girl's legs there's some phantom leg.
Then this dented head and odd hair and malformed ear.
The whole shot is just a very oddly framed mess of limbs and I bet the Trump overlay is hiding more gore.
The hand is just someone holding onto their wrist with a phone being held onto with their thumb. The "phantom leg" looks like it belongs to the girl behind them. The hair is just a sloppy hair cut. To me the fact that this picture looks imperfect and natural is why it doesn't feel like AI. Most AI images make everything smooth and ethereal and almost never chooses to have people facing away from the viewer.
What???? Did you look?
And no those can't be two different hands. There's no way the other hand's fingers bend around like that.
And also how on earth does the girl at least a few feet behind explain the leg?
???
And next to that there's a shoe that can't be accounted for.
I dunno to me it seems glaringly obvious.
I took the 5 seconds to do a reverse image search and found the stock photo series:

I know spotting AI isn't easy for everyone but I'm not sure what you think a bunch of red lines proved lol
