Ah, fair point. Probably should go in the jokes thread instead, dammit.

OTOH, Gemini seems to think it's genuine, even when I asked about the words, and on second inspection, there's a cord between the hand (his right) and the placard. So I think it can stay here unless disproved.

There's nothing wrong with the hands. The one at the bottom is a thumbs up from the guy on the right, the one at the top is a thumbs up from the guy on the left. The board appears to be Zip tied to the fence.

I wonder whether, if you asked AI, it could tell you if the image was AI or not.

Yes, I wonder... 🤔

Full article here. Nothing 100% conclusive but certainly highlights some iffy things with the AI claim. This is the problem now, people will post this sh1t and then just claim it is AI fakery when caught.

The central sign at least is a fake. Look at the hands on the right of the board. And the poorly mocked-up board itself.
Sort of a bit depressing when you have to examine the detail of photos the try and guess if they are fake or genuine. Biased reporting in one thing and not too difficult but faked pictures is just fraud and I feel yet another indication of the failures of our society.

At least 5 years ago you had to buy Photoshop (expensive) and even if you used eg Gimp they are still complex bits of software that take time and effort to learn which was too high a bar for those more prone to such fraud. But this new technology being presented as a massive step forward for society (and bank balances of the wealthy elits) allows anybody to do it with no skill, knowledge ot training, no effort. (That said I avoid AI and not done any image manipulation using it, even blocked Adobe's AI featured in LrC).
