@cdamian Great example of the little ways in which AI interferes with little everyday joy. One person says 'hey, look at this!' wanting to share a moment of joy, and it immediately turns to dust because it wasn't real. We are left feeling tricked.

People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown.@Mary_Amado92 It's relentless and exhausting and draining. I'm sorry you have to deal with it every day at work like this.

People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown.@jwcph @Amorpheus Yes - this is a great example of what made me start moaning about this in the first place. It is upsetting to see fake images getting attention while the humans who took real amazing photos of real amazing moments of life on earth get asked if they used AI.
"We should enjoy those things, not immediately assume they're part of somebody's malice" - in an ideal world, yes. But the relentless AI deceit has left us in a situation where it's fair to wonder.

People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown.@elaterite It may well be manipulated, rather than generated from scratch. Someone in the thread says it's faked out of two separate photos. Either way, it appears to be fake. No verified original real photo source seems to be available. And either way, I am depressed at what all this has has done to trust, as you say. Especially the way it creates mistrust towards human photographers who share some fab photo and get asked 'is that AI?'

People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown.@kreatorfangirls @FrutigerAero00 Yes, the consensus does seem to be this. That the drop of water would only fall and disperse in that shape if it fell on flat surface of more water.

People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown.@dsilverz Yikes, that would be a whole other layer of deception - falsifying EXIF data. I would normally trust that, but I suppose if the stakes are high enough, somebody is bound to try that.

'It would be a good practice to leave sources with links to verify it. It benefits everyone if we are now more careful linking and sourcing images and content'
Agreed

Good point. That adds another layer of difficulty these days when knowing what to trust.

People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown."We need to start asking for link sources for this kind of photos and art"
I've unthinkingly developed the habit of looking for signs of human involvement in, for example, Alt Texts and available background information. An unnaturally perfect image with a Would Win Awards composition and style? I'll trust it if the tooter's other photos have a similar style or quality and if the Alt Text says something like 'our last Summer in Paris', and not just 'Sunset'.

People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown.@stekopf Agreed - it really does show how important trust is. I would be so happy to learn that I am wrong, that this is not a manipulated fake image, that this lovely moment on earth happened and was captured in less than a second by a talented human with a camera. So far, though, everything points to a fake and nobody can verify the image or source.

-
People keep sharing an image of a bird with a drop of water bursting on its head like a crown.@fgraver @stveje If I am wrong, I will rush to correct myself. But all signs point to it being faked. I don't know how we 100% irrefutably prove something was AI-manipulated, as some have requested, but a verifiable original source of a real image would at least disprove it. But there is none so far.
