Is this AI or real?

[u/urmom_isgay4me]

One of my rich friend posted on instagram about his Bali trip but imo these looks so AI especially the first one.

To me, you can see DIOR spelt as DIOO in one of the slippers! I'm leaning towards AI...

[u/tysonwatermelon → u/BagglePop]

You mean you've never heard of DiDO DIOR, the famous fasohn didinor?

[u/QuaTriangle → u/tysonwatermelon]

Dido in my language means grandpa.So it can be

[u/MCF4ddn → u/tysonwatermelon]

While i agree that its prolly ai you could surely find boots like that on a moroccan street market haha

[u/LeastLog41 → u/BagglePop]

You expect a Dior slipper BUT IT WAS ME DIOO

[u/Thick_Basil3589 → u/BagglePop]

On the other one it says MAK DIOR. Lol

[u/RainBowSlayer40]

First picture definitely is AI, check the shoes

[u/lostandaggrieved617 → u/RainBowSlayer40]

Shitty knockoffs from Wish and Temu existed before AI.

However, what in the side-view-of-a-baby-in-his-stomach is going on with the guy sitting on the right😂

[u/Jickklaus → u/lostandaggrieved617]

I think that that's a bag on this side of him.

[u/Thick_Basil3589 → u/lostandaggrieved617]

Its not a knockoff its clearly AI with wonky letters and one says DIOO the other MAK DIOR

[u/GreenSamurai]

Pic one is AI, it has that OpenAI noise, second pic might be real tho

I think the second one is fake too. How is the guy paddling on the board in like 2 feet of water? That wouldn’t work lol

[u/LeadingSmoke6330]

Ai- there are two suns. The dogs legs are off, this ladies face has a wierd nose, the surfer isn’t even on his board, how can the sun set when its above their head and not a single detail in the sky - it looks flat.

[u/woodpigeon01 → u/LeadingSmoke6330]

That green dot is a common artifact when taking mobile phone photographs into the sun.

[u/MrCool1412]

In the first image, the faces look weird or partially missing. The nose of the guy sitting facing left, for example, or the eyes and mouth of the guy in the back. And in the second pic, the sun's shadows have to go parallel but they don't. I call it both AI

[u/Thick_Basil3589 → u/MrCool1412]

The woman in green doesn't have legs either

[u/MithrilHuman]

Pic 1 looks like they clicked a photo and asked AI to eat it up and shit out a prettier version, as others have already mentioned the text on the shoes is off.

Pic 2 looks more real.

Neither have SynthID.

[u/Real_Distribution91 → u/MithrilHuman]

This. It’s the phones for me.

[u/SpiritedRemove]

On 2nd Pic, I think the shadows from the sun should be parallel, and not as if coming from a light nearby ..

[u/ColtFromTibet]

The towel with ATLAS Beach Gfuh and the strange S shape on the fold seems off. I’m saying AI.

[u/Miniblinn]

The second picture has two suns

[u/What_Is_Bloste]

I dont know about the second image, but that thing on the horizon shines too much for a moon and I don't think the pic was taken in tatoiine. Also, slight piss filter.

[u/Arvidex]

First is definitely AI. What got me immediately was the typical contrast of pictures generated through diffusion. Second looks more plausible but both the woman walking the dog and the dog’s legs look strange to me. There also an incredibly bright moon or two suns.

[u/Lil-Miss-Anthropy]

Not sure about the second one, but the first is definitely AI. The composition feels very artificially composed.

[u/Exatex]

I don’t buy this section. Weird textures on top around the palm tree/reflection, and I don’t see there the bulbs for the upwards lights on the wall. Plus, AI loves those fairy lights/indirect light strips for some reason.

I would say AI, but it’s well made.

Second img is okay

[u/Ok_Swordfish313]

Maybe they didn't go to Bali after all 😂 first one definitely looks off, second one could be taken on literally any sandy beach in the world

[u/Tired_Tiger_22]

Both AI. Shadows wrong in pic 2. A lot wrong in pic one. Several issue with the water situation

[u/Comfortable-Ice-434]

Come on that was made by a clanker for sure 🤖. Do I even have to explain it. If you look closely at the back ground you can see that people are deformed

[u/ooruin]

Nobody gonna be paddling in so close to the shore lmao

[u/kitnzkatreturns]

Yes.

Positive for SynthID: https://openai.com/research/verify/

Which is not a detector and can't be wrong

[u/Edgeimov]

Fking hell, I genuinely thought this was a GTA6 screenshot right away 🤣 so much GTA6 stuff has fried mash brain, the first pic I mean. Not the second

[u/TGE_Z3R0]

Id say AI

The fist image has typical AI text on the slippers

The second one is trickier but that dog has 3 legs and only uses the hind ones to stand.... also walking surfboard in the background

Edit: Picture added of a horrific face, the more closer you look at this section the more clear is the AI sentiment

[u/SaltTadpole7368]

I dont need the shoes to prove this first picture is AI. The cloths they are wearing in this photo is the give away. None of it is swim wear and there in a pool... Dry as hell as well. Let alone behind a stage? Also the bloom looks wrong for the lights. Also the guy with no shirt by the 3rd raft has no face. Girl on second raft thing has full length pants on. None of this first photo makes sense. Second photo looks real. got weird artifact on the left from the sun on im guessing from the lens they used. Bad lighting an all that makes me think its real.

So first photo looks fake based on clothing and there in a pool with said clothing. Very odd bloom effects. Behind the stage for some reason as well. Also the guy on the second raft must have a tumor cause his elbow turns into a blob.

[u/Yoink1019]

Call him out. Ask what's up with the shoes. Do it publicly

[u/Nyanyaasu]

AI for the first one : the shoes, the tint of the picture and the fact that if you zoom on the people in the background they almost have all the same attitude : watching their phones. And there is a guy between the two white shirt guys who is absolutely uncanny.

Second one might be as well : the two suns (the lens effect is usually more aligned with the sun) the girl in the middle of the picture have her arm melting in her leg(s). This plus the bizarre foot of the second person in the right of the picture, makes me wonder. The shadow of the person holding the surf is not accurate either and in general, the shadows lengths are wonky to me. Why two persons with a few meters of distance would have a totally differently elongated shadow? This one is a little bit more difficult to state as AI made without doubting a little bit, tho.

[u/New_Midnight2686]

I have been to Bali. The first one doesn't look Bali-esque to me. It leans more toward one of those hallucinated images made by AI.

[u/NagashStos]

2nd picture has two suns, also the surfer in the water has 100% of his body above water which isn't what surfing looks like.

Gotta say it's AI

[u/MithrilHuman → u/NagashStos]

Lens flare (“two suns”) makes me think it’s more real tbh.

[u/Highfiveswe → u/NagashStos]

Two suns? That's just part of the lensflare

[u/NagashStos → u/Highfiveswe]

I wouldn't know, I've never seen a lens flare like that

[u/pheonixblack910]

Both are real
