This image… I don’t know if it is AI or it isn’t… but it certainly feels like AI…
Most certainly ai generated, many things in the picture don't make much sense when looked at in detail. First of all, who would leave that absolute unit of a roll in the middle of the factory? With an axle inside?
As you've been proven wrong, this is a good time to point out that accuracy rates of humans identifying AI pics is ~50%, or no better than guesswork. Keep that in mind the next time you declare something AI. YOU might be the reason an artist quits their passion, not AI
How have I been proven wrong? The other commenter posted a (real) picture of a similar thing, that proves that these exist (which I haven't put into question), not that the other picture is not ai generated. They even said that some detail bugs them, so no one has 'proven' the first image is a real photograph.
On the other hand, the poster of that link didn't say they're quitting art, just not posting it online. But even if that were the case, receiving (even unjust) criticism is part of being an artist.
Not sure if you saw my edit before replying. I'm just referring to your statement about the axle. I'm aware the pic itself is AI gen.
What kind of logic is that? So let's just contribute to make things worse for them?
No I didn't, and like the other commenter I don't buy it either. My comment didn't say you don't put the axle into the roll, that's very common for machines that are roll-fed. My comment said you don't leave it laying around in the middle of a factory. Even with much smaller machines, eg a receipt printer, where you put the axle into the roll before installing it into the machine the axle is part of the machine and usually there's only one. You pull it out of the depleted one as you take it out from the machine, put it in the new roll, and install that roll on the machine.
