Why would this particular person, who presumably opened Gimp or Procreate or Photoshop, choose to use differing texture masks on the words, and a different texture on the brush strokes, and then after all this was done, completely fail to take thirty seconds to center the text?
Because there never was a person making these choices.

Having seen people use Photoshop, especially when new to it or presented with new features…
They do that all the time.
I’m not saying this isn’t generated, it could be. I’m just saying I’ve seen people do exactly that sort of stuff while not having any idea that they can do multiline text, multiple colors in the same line, use a rule for alignment, change the text from left aligned to center (instead they hit the space bar until its “close enough”), etc
You generally learn how text alignment works before you learn how font masking works. This is true for multiple text handling programs, from Photoshop to word processors.
My eyes have seen all manner of ridiculous use of Photoshop (among others).
I have seen people write an entire damn document inside a single cell in Excel.
I have seen people make charts in Excel, while watching them also use a calculator and enter the values manually.
I have seen people use Word to create a photo album, just dragging them in full size, then try and “center” the text underneath by pressing space.
I have seen people use google docs while boarding a plane, only to get mad that it doesn’t work without internet once the flight took off (pre in-flight wifi era).
I have seen people use drafts in Outlook to store their passwords.
This has only gotten worse as people watch tutorials on advanced features while having no idea how the basic tools work.
You can believe whatever you’d like, I’m just saying people do absolutely boneheaded and preposterous things all the time.
For real though. Maybe they did center it but there was whitespace, if we’re being generous.
I’m not pro-‘AI’, far from it. But I hate seeing so much energy wasted fighting amongst ourselves over these instances where, not only could it go either way, it simply doesn’t matter.
There are much more egregious examples littered everywhere, even here, where the tech is actually used perniciously.
Gotta pick one’s battles, otherwise it just distracts from the substance and generates outrage where it’s not warranted.
Decades ago, one of my first jobs was helping people learn to use a Macintosh computer, the first ones. I told a guy to use the mouse to click “New”, and he put the mouse up against the screen. I’d never seen anyone do that before, but the thing is, that makes sense if you’ve never used a mouse.

You are welcome to believe that.

Just thought I’d share that.
