could be good old photoshop. First results doing a reverse image search show 2022, which was well before the AI boom

Also, it just looks extremely AI. Why would they put a sign at knee-height, on a mailbox? And look at the bolts in the sign. What’s it bolted to? lol
Plus, they put up a metal sign (bolted to nothing) for a single bear?
Everything about it looks completely fake.

OK that’s legit. So it’s just a shitty photoshop picture.

Seems like you’re more butthurt over the “AI-ness” than it being reposted

It’s a stupid picture.

I think that the fakeness lies in the sign and the bear, not the whole image. The text on the sign and numbers on the mailbox are immaculate, which isn’t something AI is known for doing. I can’t find any other oddities, like weird textures at full zoom or an inconsistent depth of field. If this photo was taken during Halloween, it would perfectly explain someone putting a sign in that illogical spot and placing a fake bear on the grass.

There’s zero connection to Halloween. And you admitted that it looks fake, but are nitpicking the level of fake.
It doesn’t even remotely look like a photo, set up or otherwise. It looks AI.

Unfamiliar with Halloween antics, doesn’t know what memes are, can’t pick up on Photoshop…

You actually don’t think that.

That bear isn’t a halloween antic
can’t pick up on Photoshop…
Photoshop stuff looks different. Also, if it was photoshopped it would also be a shitty meme.
doesn’t know what memes are
It’s not a meme.

That appears to be an actual sign you can buy.

It also appears to be bolted to the mailbox.
