This image is not AI. AI images were not a thing in 2018. It would be real, or photo edited by a human.
Comment on what the fuck is that allowed???

Already posted and searched. It’s AI.

I think that date is incorrect. Probably a new post and this image appears in the recommendations/feed.
In general I find those dates on search results increasingly unreliable.CanadianCarl@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Yeah, you are 100% correct. I didn’t know that earlier.

This is the original as far as I can tell based on a reverse image search. www.tumblr.com/…/812499451491024896
That page is basically all AI images. It may have happened for real before, but this picture is definitely AI gen.
Edit: and it has a positive synthID from Gemini.

The condition of that pool water is that of a long abandoned pool and it would take months without chemicals and filtration to get to that point. Or one fuck you flooding event.
Pools in this condition absolutely exist, but you typically would not find a manicured lawn or relatively decent lawn furniture. The concrete is also pretty clean for such filth.
Lastly, that little swamp puppy would be more likely to fight that novelty floaty than try to go for a ride and not because it looks like him, but because it’s something I’m the water that might be a threat.

Did we really need confirmation that this was AI?

Note the weird artifact in front of their left shoulder.

If you’ve ever been on one you know that even being slightly off center is going to spill you into the water. I doubt a gator could even get on a floaty long ways like that

Also the sliding door that opens directly into the pool.

Honestly that sounds really nice.
warbond@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Haha, that didn’t even register!

That and they’d probably slash it open trying.

oh yeah you’re right. at first i thought it was just a very shallow pool, but that doesn’t make sense. you can see stairs leading into it.
