      Good AI generated images are indistinguishable from real ones (you just haven’t been noticing them). AI slop is just lazy generations without any touch ups or polishing and mass produced by bots.

        This is the real take! The only giveaway I see is he doesn’t look like he’s supporting himself in the walker, despite him always looking like he is using one regardless cause of his shoe lifts.

        ISO noise + JPEG is great at hiding imperfections, though. I hope the spammers don’t figure this out.

      The faces of the people in the background give it away for me. You would also expect to be able to read the exit sign above the door. The arm of the guy who’s on the right also looks deformed. Oh, and there’s a weird part on the carpet. It looks like it’s supposed to be a shadow but there’s shadows on top of it.

        Most everything you’re describing looks like ISO/compression noise. Or (with faces/the exit sign) out-of-focus background.

        …An issue is that most social media users have become accustomed to recompressed potato JPEGs, and that just happens to ‘hide’ artifacts quite well.

      To my eye, the left side of his legs don’t really line up correctly with his torso in this image.

      His right hand has an extra joint in it. Also the legs on the walker are a bit wonky on that side as well; they both kind of look like they’re in front.

      Clearest reasons:

      Cheap $30 walker

      Not his current face structure. he hasn’t looked like that since before 2019

      Exit sign while blurred doesn’t read exit.

      The photo is very potato, while the bokeh is clearly strong. You don’t get that depth of field at 15 ft on a cell phone. you’d need an slr and a telephoto, which he clearly would not allow

      carpet pattern is at a odd angle. the next pattern back is square. the one at the base of the walker is several inches deviated between the two wheels.

      no leg braces, legs are too trim

      less clear reasons:

      the left door configuration is screwy, if you close or open the two visible doors in the picture, you’ll have trouble making their geometry fit with what would work in the hallway/office shape. the open on the left has a pushbar, but the right side has a handle. they don’t lineup, if this is an extended hall and that’s an open office on the right, it’s covering up a LOT more of the hall than it should perspective wise.

      They’d have him in a chair, or walking with people as aids to hide it.

      It’s just him standing normaly, except holding a walker, the timing of the image, as one user mentioned: not gold encrusted
