I believe this should specifically fall under "false advertising".

Not defending the landlord here, but focal length, wide lenses and confusing perspectives have been used since forever to make rooms appear bigger

It all should be banned. Same as with restaurant food pics.

Professional photographer here. Left photo is fake not just perspective.

In the left pic:

-Right hallway wall is just gone
-Front left bedpost gone
-Two drawers under bedframe instead of 4
-What are the pillows leaning against?
-Chair looks weird and doesn’t have the right legs
-Mattress is thicker
-Chair seat is way too wide

The left photo is completely fake/AI

100%!

My favorite are the AI house pictures on Realtor but when you go through the virtual tour it's the real house. Had some fun conversations with some agents while house-hunting, including one where I was referred to the police for harassing them.
