Transcript of me examining this picture:
"Okay, face looks okay, jacket makes sense, let’s look at the hands. Looks like four fingers on her left hand there, the right hand, thumb’s a little screwy, is that a stick or is she part tarsier? Something’s kind of screwy there. Boots look about right, there’s even a pretty decent depth of field on the sho-THE FIRE IS IN THE TENT.
It’s like that test where you count the number of basketballs and miss the guy in the gorilla costume.
Man I didn’t even notice the fire in the tent until I read your comment …
It’s not that these images are perfect - it’s that they’re close enough.
The “problem” is that these images look amazing with a minimal touchup - something which would happen anyway to a real photo.
An extra hour to two fixing some AI artifacts (the ol’ droop-eye and derp-hand) is a LOT cheaper than getting actual people out to an actual location and taking an actual photo.
EDIT: I just realised the tent is on fire 🤡
Nice asbestos tent, but she still got Gollum fingers doe. 😏
The tells
Hands issues, thumb and metal claw
Face issue, studio lighting on face, right eye is not eyeing.
Body issues, left leg is a weird tiny leg
Boot laces lack credibility
Fire in a tent
AI is bad at the details.
I’ve gotten so used to looking at the details that I didn’t even notice the blatant fire-in-the-tent.
It’s funny how the generators arent getting better. They’ve plateaued pretty hard in terms of believability. Glance value? Convincing.
Under any level of scrutiny though this falls apart in at least a dozen ways.
I hate how obsessed AI has made me with hands and feet. cause that used to be how you noticed AI pics (still is, to a degree, but they are sadly getting better at not creating abomination limbs), they always fucked up the hands and feet.
and now I find my eyes immediately drawn to hands and feet of any picture, even in real life, cause this stupid bullshit has trained my eyes to scan for weird digital hallucinatory biology.
and I can not begin to express in human language how much I hate it now that i’ve noticed it
And sometimes people just have weird hands. I remember seeing a picture from a Trump rally somebody posted, and people were like “Why does everybody look so weird?” “Must be AI. Look at that baby’s mutant alien hands.” It was a picture from 2017, before all this AI shit started.
Supposedly theres a porn star from the '90/00’s that had a club foot. Super hot, but always had the one foot out of the frame or covered.
Probably “folk lore” but what you said reminded me of that.
Except for the super long pinky finger shes cute
Her pointer finger is longer than her middle finger, too. The chick in the movie Species was super cute too. Just saying.
A smart move would have been to put a real photo here and then troll all the comments about uncanny valley …and by smart I mean evil.
…
I will totally do that in future.
( btw. the hands are still messy ☝️)
The finglonger!
The fire IN the tent is hilarious
Best to keep the fire contained so you dont burn nature.
Ah, good idea putting the fire in the tent, that way the fire will stay warm
No, that’s fine. It’s the 👍 thumb! Look at it! It’s freakishly small but not ridiculously small.
Fuck I was totally convinced until I saw her shoe laces
