First thing that stands out is the lighting. He appears to be lit by a studio soft box but the rest of the room isn’t. A lot of AI “photos” do this.
Second is the texture of the face has a plasticky appearance of AI smoothing. His eyes are also blurry in a way that doesn’t make sense with the wide depth of field in the image.
It is otherwise pretty convincing. Its possible that its simply been run through some sore of AI enhancement filter, rather than being completely generated. Possibly an original selfie that someone prompted to generate an ape costume onto.

Probably just a photo edit with Gemini. Leaves the background intact, just edits the person. Much harder to find problems with these.
