  • The watermark is noticeably more readable in the Facebook image I linked though, and it does say photography (even there it is somewhat blurred though, so assuming it was actually clear in the original source that copy is a few recompressions along the chain).

    The dates of the other sources however are what really convinces me it’s not AI. After all, who was doing good quality photorealistic AI image generation in 2021?



  • Seems legit enough to me. The next rack of tomatoes would only be ~2m away after all given the gaps between rows aren’t going to be massive. Pretty sure the sharpness issues are primarily from repeated JPEG recompression data loss - you can find a better quality version of the image by searching ‘carmine spina tomatoes’ which both looks less compressed in the far ground and dates from at least 2022 (so before mass popularity of AI generation).
