It’s AI generated. Weird double lane markers and every car’s headlights and bulbs in their homes being blue.

it doesn't look ai generated. there are no "weird" details

photoManipulated maybe?

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah you’re probably right, it may not be AI, but it’s definitely edited/manipulated. Some of the windows are repeated several times.

[–] yonder@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah, I would guess that maybe multiple photographs have been stitched together to make the image alongside the color editing.

That's called a lens filter (or photoshop).
Please stop calling that something is AI generated, you obviously don't know how to tell if it is.
This image was made at least before 2020

Yeah I might have jumped the gun the gun by calling it AI-generated, when I was meaning to say it’s edited/manipulated. The windows repeat several times. Definitely not just a simple photo that went through some filters.

The windows repeat several times.

That's called a reflect.
A reflect of a distant light source, that's why it's extremely similar.

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You mean these are reflects? Even the interiors look the same.

I was talking about the 3 blues one.

And if the image is fake, then what is it ? AI generated ?

I am guessing Shanghai China.

We don't need AI to design nightmares like this for us. We do it to ourselves.

Nah this looks pretty standard photoshopping to me. Pretty sure the colour grading is one of the standard filters in lightroom
