    What is going on with the focus in that image?

    The fan looks like it’s a tilt shift, with a very narrow focal range, but everything else in the image is perfectly clear. It looks like the result of some very crappy AI object deletion but I can’t work out what they would want to delete.

      Looks like normal a normal phone picture if you have shaky hands. If you don’t give your phone time to auto focus and have shaky hands. Or if something’s moving while you take the picture. The mandatory filter that’s ment to clean up the img just blurs the fuck out of it.

      It’s the worse part of pixels phones honestly.

      If you look at the right side of the trashcan, you can see the normal pattern disappear: it only has lines going one way. Also, no moiré pattern or whatever you would expect on the top part, where it should intersect with the net on the back side, vs the bottom where it doesn’t.

      My verdict? Either lots of postprocessing fuckery going on, or outright AI generated image. One can’t tell these days.

        looks to me like someone just kept their phone’s camera on whatever default settings it came with and one of those settings happened to be an “enhancing” algorithm that makes a generic image “better” but give it two overlapping patterns and it gets a stroke

        edit: upon further examination, there’s a keyhole at the bottom of the door, it’s just AI, ugh
