An image people won't believe wasn't machine generated in 5 years.

[-] brsrklf@jlai.lu 20 points 5 months ago

I may have thought it was a fake picture even 20 years ago. That kind of stuff could have come from Something Awful's Photoshop Phriday.

Photo editing and compositing has been around long before photoshop too.

[-] brsrklf@jlai.lu 2 points 5 months ago

Sure, but since the advent of digital media I wouldn't assume someone went full Stalinian propaganda to fabricate that picture. Though I think I would respect that effort, in a way.

Cheers to an old old memory. You look like shit.

Jokes on you, I don't believe it today

In 5 years? Any image that's less than believable and has a minor abnormality is immediately called AI. Any low effort post, AI. The hysteria is upon us already.

I believe it, but I came to the comments to check.

Jaws was never my scene and I don't like Star Wars.

[-] MeekerThanBeaker@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago

I want to ride my speeder bike.

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 26 points 5 months ago

I was expecting something different.

[-] Zier@fedia.io 22 points 5 months ago

That happened later in a private suite of the Deathstar.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 6 points 5 months ago

Clearly ai art. Darth Vader isn't real.

[-] jaykay@lemmy.zip 5 points 5 months ago

Maybe it’s Freddie who’s not real
