    Almost all billboards in the Silicon Valley area are for AI and related services, it really does look like selling shovels to shovel sellers.

      For real, here is a super shitty approximation of the same image. It took me roughly three minutes to make. And most of that was simply remembering how to get ProCreate to do the things I wanted it to do, because I don’t use it regularly:

      Nah, aside from the general look&feel - I ain’t seein it. There’s no artifacts as far as I can tell.

      EDIT: Oops, you’re right guys, there’s an explicit helper text at the bottom

        “Made with AI” at the bottom aside, you need to brush up on your AI detection skills. There’s plenty of AI weirdness here.

        It says “Made with AI” at the bottom left. It also just looks so AI generated I would’ve bet $50 even if they’re wasn’t the disclaimer

        The main tell in non-realistic photos are the colors and excessive gradients. There’s a lot of gray midtones in the shacks and rocks.

      100% divine formatting

      If OOP was a miner they might be tired of shovel sellers but loveeee the handful of shovels they already have, including the one that made this comic
