Is it just me or does the first image look like AI?

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 15 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (11 children)

Pretty sure it’s just the tilt-shift effect giving that impression, goats can climb basically anything short of a perfect 90 degree angle.

E: actually AI edit of a real photo

Yeah but what is that second goat in the background doing?

Sleeping on the side?

Plus, 2nd image, the poses don't match the incline, and 3rd image the heads and tails are weird

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 4 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

First image is literally 7 years old. You can investigate the others to prove they’re AI if you really want, but I’m not chasing down every false alarm.

As I replied elsewhere, wrong, the first image is clearly derived from a 7 year old image but is not that image. This is AI garbage.

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 0 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Could also be climbing and at a funny angle, could be licking minerals (a common reason for goats to climb).

I can’t imagine there’s a lot of training data for mountain goats, especially climbing at weird angles, which is part of why I think this likely isn’t AI generated.

[–] No_Eponym@lemmy.ca 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Does no one know how to enlarge images anymore? This is clearly AI slop, just zoom in on them it is painfully obvious as the

  • background goat in the first photo has no head and is stuck in the wall up to their shoulders.
  • both goats in the second image have extra horns or a leg tail or some random white fluff coming out of their face
  • both goats in the third image are just approximations of goats blurred together
[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (1 children)

All of this is nonsense, because it’s a 7 year old image. (Does nobody know how to reverse image search anymore?)

You are not as good at being an image detective as you think.

[–] No_Eponym@lemmy.ca 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Wrong again! The image you linked is not the first image, but clearly is the source of the training for the AI image.

See

  • different goat face position, eye, colouring
  • missing goats at the bottom left of the image
  • completely different cliff face

Since these deficiencies are obvious and anyone can see them, that leaves Lemmings to ask, why are you defending this? Are you

  • trolling?
  • karma farming?
  • a bot?

Cause your defence of this is as fake as the AI images in the meme and muddies the waters, supporting breaking Rule 5 of this community. Why do you support AI slop when it is against the rules?

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I’m a guy on my phone with one good eye doing my best to see what I’m looking at. You could have taken the opportunity to consider there are people not looking at this with 4k on a giant screen, but calling me a bot for thinking those were the same image on a phone is probably more reasonable 🙄

Since it is slop, yeah, mods should delete it. Go through my post history if you want to see how much of an AI stan I am, lmao.

[–] Kairus@lemmy.world 0 points 17 hours ago

I second guessed myself, and had to look back-and-forth at those images on phone. Calling you a bot/troll for this in isolation is a pretty unreasonable leap
