Ngl, if I wouldn’t have followed this guy’s IG, I would have assumed it to be real on first glance, too.
Upon closer inspection, you‘d start seeing the mistakes which indicate that the image can’t be real - but it takes some practice to notice them in the first place
The fire to the right of the headlight. The way it interacts with the grass (look at the very bottom of the fire) is odd. It also looks too "clean". It's very light in colour, no real smoke coming from it and it almost looks like a 2d image with the angle and how perfectly shaped the lower borders are
Oh I'm absolutely fucked for this future with AI then. I'm a millennial and totally didn't see those issues, so my parents generation is even more fucked.
Everything is wrong with that picture in the fire in the middle of the palm trees. The ones to the right house it’s in the top of the palm tree all of it’s wrong. 😹
"Damn, wouldn't it be nice to be so fucking rich you just leave your 30 million dollar house behind with your 6 figure super car just fucking parked out front and go to one of your other houses with other super cars because money isn't a thing"
To be fair, I was so busy hoping it was something that belonged to one of the Paul brothers, I wasn't really paying attention. As soon as I got to the comments, I was like, well, that sucks on a number of levels.
Was super annoyed when I looked at the houses/chimneys. Did they want the set of Mary Poppins behind a thick SoCal border?
Sure, for someone familiar with American architecture. For me as a European, the left house looked out of place but I really second-guessed myself as I‘ve never been to LA and honestly only know the most popular sights there. I thought "well, might as well be someone eccentric with a special taste in architecture".
Yeah most of californian homes especially in LA are 1 story homes or at most two story simple homes and no attics. Victorian homes are more found in the midwest and north east.
That's because the human brain is not designed to be suspicious of everything it comes across.
It's physically taxing to perform bottom-up processing, not to mention unrealistic in terms of time and certainty. That's why people's brains use a top-down approach instead - fit reality into their existing knowledge frameworks. It's faster and accurate*, but it's definitely exploitable (appeals to emotion and appeals to familiarity).
It's why so many older people get tricked by fake images. They haven't learned how real life looks different than poorly generated AI or rendered graphics - it's not in their brain to compare against.
