I just had an awful thought. What if we reach the next ai generating chapter where its programmed to make "freshly photoshopped" images; and getting better and better.
Oh gawd.... are those clipping boundaries... too perfect??

As a graphics specialist, I can confirm that this is not ai generated

Can you tell by the pixels?

the government spent how much money developing the SLS and a 10+ year old sedan could just drive to the moon? Pure government waste.

SCP Wiki confirms that there are buildings on the moon, so it's definitely a real photo.

An AI trained in Photoshop could do this without any problems, in order to know for sure, you need to watch without taking your eyes off how a person does this with his own hands on a computer.

Or in the time it takes to figure out how to do that, you could've grabbed a stock photo of the moon, grabbed a stock photo of a USAian dollar store, shoved 'em both in Inkscape, drawn a quick polygon, applied it as a mask, and exported it as a png.

'cos that's what I did.

Hell yeah 100% meat certified

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Opps. Poor choice of wordplay. 🥴

Explanation... an old pre-2000 USDA sticker placed on by grocery stores to indicate "this is a 100% certified meat product".

My twist... this photoshop is a 100% human-made product.

Excellent photoshopping.

Yeah we all know it's Dollar General, not a Family Dollar, on the moon. One of those yellow bags just floated up there, landed in the dirt, and sprouted a store

Six more months and it will be a Spirit Halloween.

I’m assuming ads visible from Earth will be among the first developments.

Something is off, but I cannot put my finger on it.

It's not a waffle house

There's a Dollar General and a Family Dollar up there? JFC even the moon can't escape capitalism.

Guess Tim Curry was wrong.
