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
It's a screen shot from a video. That thing on the door is for helping the door handle not dent the wall (the peg thing would be on the wall instead of the door in this case).
