Why does it feel like an AI generated image? Am I the only one getting this vibe?

[-] IzzyScissor@lemmy.world 55 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Hyper-detailed foreground with a blurry background and a subject matter that falls into the uncanny valley? Yeah, that all checks out.

E2A: Zoom in on smaller sections and it becomes more obvious. Objects that should be in the same depth of field have different levels of blur, patterns don't follow rules, it looks like the jacket has buttons, but half of a zipper on one side? There's a lot of little things.

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 16 points 2 months ago

You are good at pointing out what feels wrong in the image. It could be a case of very heavy editing or AI-powered filters without necessarily being completely ai generated but I still stand by my initial impression that it gives and AI vibe and you are right about why

[-] bassomitron@lemmy.world 32 points 2 months ago

Musk really did post this.

Whether he used an AI generator or not, it's possible. But honestly, I could easily see him paying for a photoshoot for this since he announced moving SpaceX to Texas.

The cut off conspiracy theory image 🤣

Because it is either an AI image or it has been processed to look like one.

[-] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 18 points 2 months ago

You know it’s AI because the hat isn’t on backwards this time

[-] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 16 points 2 months ago

It doesn't need to be AI generated. He is that ugly and weird.

[-] fushuan@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago

It probably is why bother with the dress up when you can generate the photo after some trial an error.

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.org 9 points 2 months ago

The scarf looks rather strange. Some partitions are square patterned while the rest follow some arbitrary dotting.

[-] orgrinrt@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yup, that seam/twist there on the foreground is almost a definitive giveaway

Edit: I mean I guess that especially a rich person could, for some reason, wear a weird ass scarf designed by someone who thinks in a very out-of-the-box way.. but which is more likely?

This is douchebag Musk we're talking about. Either one is equally possible, lol.

[-] casmael@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago

That’s because it’s an ai image by the looks of it

What was the Texan saying?
All hat no cattle?

[-] Kalkaline@leminal.space 12 points 2 months ago

It's actually "look at that douche bag in the cowboy get up" I'm from Texas and we don't wear the cowboy hats for the most part. They're for tourists.

He keeps his cattle at the factories.

[-] abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 41 points 2 months ago

The picture feels AI generated

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

yeah I thought the same thing. there's uncanny valley vibes; it looks more human than Elon, but not quite fully human.

You can tell he's not in Texas because he would have a heat stroke in that leather jacket.

The man wouldn’t last an hour working on an actual ranch.

This is what a REAL 🤠 looks like:

[-] childOfMagenta@lemm.ee 19 points 2 months ago

Wanker, Texas Rager

[-] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 17 points 2 months ago

Looks like the kind of guy who enjoys salsa from New York City

Good lord we're old...

[-] Myxomatosis@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Aside from not wanting to pay taxes and being a rightwing asswipe, why does he think moving to Texas is a good idea? They don’t have a functional power grid and it’s not an appealing place to live for any of his employees who have a half a brain.

[-] anachronist@midwest.social 12 points 2 months ago

Texas gov't under Abbot is sucking his c***.

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Fewer employee protections

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

It'll help weed out those who aren't True Believers.

[-] Thunderbird4@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

We already know what he looks like in a cowboy hat, and that ain’t it.

[-] PotatoesFall@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 2 months ago

How does this guy think his mustache looks good. I'm sorry to bodyshame but man my mustache grows the exact same way and it is equally unflattering to grow out. And he has far more money to spend on barbers

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 18 points 2 months ago

I don't think that he had any control over how his moustache looks on the image, given that it's most likely an AI generated image.

Musk has always had terrible hair.. I have no idea why he always has some weak as shit moustache and beard going. I also can't grow facial hair for shit so i shave every day. I'll grow out a moustache for Christmas, but even a month's worth of growth looks thin and shitty.

And of course he adds in a picture of John Wayne, the draft-dodging, woman-beating, other wannabe cowboy poser.

[-] Blackout@kbin.run 10 points 2 months ago

He'll do well there, he's got those horse fucking eyes just like Lee

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago

I mean actual cowboys were also looking lame, that's why hollywood had to idealise them.

[-] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

Only thing that comes from Texas are steers and queers

[-] MonkderDritte@feddit.de 7 points 2 months ago

Wannabe cowboy.

[-] vxx@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I never noticed he had no eye lashes. Is that common in people?

[-] blarth@thelemmy.club 6 points 2 months ago

Snakeskin cowboy
