A viral photo of a guy smoking in McDonald’s is completely fake — and of course made by AI::Look at the fingers. You always have to look at the fingers

Looking at the photo knowing it is AI generated, I can definitely see all of the imperfections, however for someone who is just scrolling looking at stuff and not really paying attention, it’s easily passable. And I think that’s a huge problem, especially with Sora being a thing, you won’t be able to believe anything you see on the internet ever again.

I’d even take it further and I’d bet that there are going to be movies made in the future that will brag about how they didn’t use AI in the production. This shit is wild

It’s a nail in the coffin to know the world wide webs golden age won’t have a resurgence and that you’ll no longer be able to believe or trust anything you watch, read, or hear, pretty soon.

People lied on the internet before generative AI. Now they’ll just lie with pictures but the lying will continue
