I guess some people thought it was AI, but just a cool moment in my basement window well.
Edit: taken with my iPhone several years ago since that’s all I had with me when it happened so quickly.
I can see why, it looks AI as hell...
I think it looks nice. AI or not.
I'd have to stare at it for longer than I have to decide if it's AI. So until I can do that, I'm going to trust the OP until I can verify their claims.
Edit: definitely not AI. Nice shot OP.
I think part of it is the imperfections that make it look a bit more like nonsensical ai hallucinations
It's not AI.
There's one big tell that I don't think AI is advanced enough to replicate.
Op took this picture though a window that had multiple panes of glass. So there's an echo of the image from the secondary reflections between the panes of glass.
I also can't spot and of the debris in the shot blending into itself. Everything seems to be complete objects.
But that reflection? I've never seen AI do anything like that.
In case anyone doesn't quite see what's going on here, the image is taken from inside (lights seem to be off from where the camera is), through thermal glass into a concrete window space, which is common for places that have basements so the window can serve as an emergency exit (even if you need to break it to get out)...
Looks like there's some kind of evergreen tree not far from where the window is, given the debris in the photo.
Great shot OP.
Yeah that's what I mean, initially it looks like there's a bunch of details that make no sense but it's all reflections
