This is pretty impressive imo.
What gives it away as ai slop? I'm not seeing anything standout.

[–] DrDickHandler@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Good AI generated images are indistinguishable from real ones (you just haven't been noticing them). AI slop is just lazy generations without any touch ups or polishing and mass produced by bots.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 5 points 2 days ago

This is the real take! The only giveaway I see is he doesn't look like he's supporting himself in the walker, despite him always looking like he is using one regardless cause of his shoe lifts.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

+1

ISO noise + JPEG is great at hiding imperfections, though. I hope the spammers don't figure this out.

Clearest reasons:

Cheap $30 walker

Not his current face structure. he hasn't looked like that since before 2019

Exit sign while blurred doesn't read exit.

The photo is very potato, while the bokeh is clearly strong. You don't get that depth of field at 15 ft on a cell phone. you'd need an slr and a telephoto, which he clearly would not allow

carpet pattern is at a odd angle. the next pattern back is square. the one at the base of the walker is several inches deviated between the two wheels.

no leg braces, legs are too trim

less clear reasons:

the left door configuration is screwy, if you close or open the two visible doors in the picture, you'll have trouble making their geometry fit with what would work in the hallway/office shape. the open on the left has a pushbar, but the right side has a handle. they don't lineup, if this is an extended hall and that's an open office on the right, it's covering up a LOT more of the hall than it should perspective wise.

They'd have him in a chair, or walking with people as aids to hide it.

Hair looks too natural

To my eye, the left side of his legs don't really line up correctly with his torso in this image.

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

do they line up normally though?

[–] noride@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

We'll need to cross reference with a centaur to be sure.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I've played Breath of the Wild. He does not look like the centaurs in that.

He's a lot flabbier. And leans forward more.
And his hooves are tiny.

[–] yggstyle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

He always was a crooked man.

[–] Pappabosley@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

That's why he needs the walker

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's just him standing normaly, except holding a walker, the timing of the image, as one user mentioned: not gold encrusted

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

if it was made of gold, it would be quite too heavy for his brittle centuar bones,.

[–] dermanus@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Nah, spray paint wouldn't add much weight.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

still too much for trump lol.

His right hand has an extra joint in it. Also the legs on the walker are a bit wonky on that side as well; they both kind of look like they're in front.

[–] elfin8er@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (3 children)

The faces of the people in the background give it away for me. You would also expect to be able to read the exit sign above the door. The arm of the guy who's on the right also looks deformed. Oh, and there's a weird part on the carpet. It looks like it's supposed to be a shadow but there's shadows on top of it.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Most everything you're describing looks like ISO/compression noise. Or (with faces/the exit sign) out-of-focus background.

...An issue is that most social media users have become accustomed to recompressed potato JPEGs, and that just happens to 'hide' artifacts quite well.

Guess he should have regulated ai then

We all understand multiple things can cast shadows at once, yeah?

[–] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

plz don't start normalizing AI

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

How is asking what's to tell it's slop normalizing it?

[–] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl -1 points 3 days ago (2 children)

This is pretty impressive imo.

I don't understand what just happened.
