    i think the picture in the post might have been run through some ai filter. the plates, cups, etc. have those characteristic ai “smudges” on them, and i can’t say that the hand looks any more correct. i’m just wondering why would somebody bother putting this through such filter, unless that was done automatically by some random software

      That does seem quite possible, I was suspicious of the smearing as well which is why I went looking for a source. As to why it would get put through a filter, hard to say, but it’s becoming far too common which further blurs the line between real and AI.

        I appreciate the sauce and admit they are largely the same picture. It looks like someone downloaded a 360p jpeg of that picture then upscaled it with AI or something, or somehow managed to prompt the picture out wholesale. The most egregious part IMO is here:

        The color desaturation is sus and the difference between teacup and cream? pot designs screams slop at me. The hand holding the cup&saucer, other saucers and the crystal glasses all look wrong too.
