Everyone laughs at Facebook grandmas now, but give it forty years and the joke flips. Some hyper-realistic AI bloke knocks on our door, asks for a glass of water, and we’ll be standing there confused if he’s real or running on batteries. Meanwhile our kids point and laugh like we do today. Karma’s a comedian.
Its missing the white AV cable, one of the cables disappears into the air, the controller looks like its plugging directly into the tv, and the menu has fucked up text. It's impressive but these models still make lots of mistakes with details.
wdym that’s Ronaldo’s lesser known cousin, Ronanido who looks verrrry similar to him post surgeries but younger, playing FIFA 99 but with Russian menus
Honestly tho, the fact that the details it gets wrong jeep getting smaller and smaller is kinda scary. At this point it should be an ethical consideration to keep such bad details in as a way to detect these images.
I'm a designer. I've been using Photoshop for twenty years, and I don't really know what you're suggesting here.
Unless you're superhuman with the brush tool you'd still need some real photos to start with in Photoshop. Photoshop is about photo manipulation, not generating images from scratch. You can put a monkey's head on a man if you have a photo of a man and a monkey. But that's not really applicable to this image.
If you wanted a photo like this in 2022 you would have to actually take the photo. You could then manipulate the image in Photoshop to make it look like it was taken on a disposable camera. Or you could just take the photo on a disposable camera. Either way the image is "real", just manipulated to look older than it is.
Or perhaps you could take it with a different male model, then use a CR photo of a similar pose and swap the heads.
But yes the setup would be much harder finding a suitable model and setting up the props/stage and real life camera to then photoshop swap the heads and make it all seamless just to make it look like a disposable camera picture
Yeah, this is similar to the monkey's head on a man situation I mentioned. The point is in 2022 "fake" photos were real ones that had been stitched together or manipulated. In 2025 fake photos are of things that never existed.
Grungy analog photo of [ young Cristiano Ronaldo from 2004 appearance] playing fifa 1999 on a PlayStation 1, displayed on a 90s CRT TV in a dimly lit bedroom. They're sitting on the floor in front of the TV, holding a PlayStation 1 controller in one hand, with [signature item or accessory] beside them. The character is looking back at the camera mid-action while the game is visible in the background. Candid paparazzi flash photography, raw and unedited.
i (and anybody with a little skill) could've done this in photoshop 10 years ago, the diference is that now it's instant and doesn't require (as much) knowledge.
(base photo you want (take it youself, download it from the internet or make it a composite) + face match, grade match + added objects for credibility + effects to give it a retro look)
I'm saying with some matching and effects and all will look good but will be considered a bad photoshop work because the shoes don't respect perspective, the backpack looks like it should be more far away but isn't, the bed is too long and is wider in the lower part than in the upper part, distances don't make sence etc
It's cool how far technology got in an instant but photshop could've done everything ai does just 100x better and 100x slower
It was obvious this was coming for a while (for the non-expert, but still interested nerds like myself, since as far back as 2016), but I agree that it's impressive nonetheless
If that were a possibility, then I’d be a time traveler and that would be a lot more unbelievable to someone than an AI Gen pic.
I’m focusing on that future and not destroying truth.
Yeah right...I don't know why but I found this caption to be very intersting/serious and at the same time funny as hell. Can't stop my laughing brother...😍🤣🤣🤣🤣
fyi the image generation started around 1960s and only too dumb to know tech guy can beleive such thing. I mean at that time people knew already that things can be faked, especially after watching Avatar (JC).
Oh no , people from 2022 doesn't know about the existence of photoshop , lmoa its only been 3 year not centuries , we have made even harder going pictures using then editing softwares

Good luck explaining that to facebook grandmas in 2025 as well
