I really appreciate your content, but maybe let’s shy away from AI images in non-AI communities?
While I appreciate you calling out AI content, it is helpful to substantiate how you concluded that it is AI generated to prevent people thinking these claims are all false positives. Nothing in the image seemed uncanny to me (apart from whatever physics would be required to make the suit itself). Several different online AI image detectors all claimed this image was real. Reverse image searches led to only recent social media posts with no further details. I did find two sources (of dubious credibility) that claim it to be AI generated

Despite the apparent lack of any AI generated image traits (as far as the detectors and me can tell), since there is apparently no further details and all of the information is new and “viral”, I would think this is AI generated. It would also make sense as an awareness marketing scheme for the beer brand on the front of the coat.
What characteristics stuck out to you?
Edit: Based on the above information and things other commenters said, I think the simplest solution is that the beer’s marketing campaign started with a real photo of a guy in a clear puffy jacket and then used AI and/or photoshop to edit the image to fill the jacket with beer and to put a logo and straw on it. I’ve seen no criticisms of anything separate from the jacket, so the environment, lighting, camera focus, and guy’s face seem canny enough to be real. I guess there are two points at hand:
-
Is it real? No.
-
Is it AI-generated specifically? Undetermined. There are loads of memes that are photoshopped which we don’t take issue with. It’s specifically the images which are deceptive about their plausibility that are the problem.
I don’t see anything obvious to indicate that it is a generated image either. However I noticed the font is slightly off and the second character is wrong.
So either the model came very close and failed at one character, or it’s a real image with counterfit brand usage and they misspelled it on purpose.
I guess the straw looks off but it could maybe work in a less obvious way.
Or the brand is photoshopped in after the generation and they just did a poor job.
If they shoped the brand in, that would explain the text being off, but why would the second character be wrong?
and they just did a poor job
AI image detectors are notoriously flawed by the way.
Yes, I think of them as circumstantial evidence rather than hard evidence.
The problem is that they are all wrong enough often enough that they should not even be considered IMHO, but I understand that others feel differently about their usefulness.
I’m not fluent in reading chinese, but the text in the jacket looked odd and sure enough, it’s incorrect when comparing to a picture of the real logo.
Suckling the zuckercock.

I assumed it was just an edited version of the clear jacket. Pretty sure I saw a picture of it recently.
It isn’t even their content…
By “your content,” I meant putting in the effort to post shit to the fediverse
Fair enough but when it is just reposting others posts so that everything is doubled up on all is it really adding anything of value.
I get that they are reposting pretty much everything they see on .ml presumably for people who have that instance blocked but I question how beneficial that really is.
Either way I agree with your original anti AI sentiment :)
Complain as you may, it’s only going to get worse and worse. Sorry, bud.
tbh, with the chinese characters in the upper side and the details on the sides I’d say this is just photoshopped?
Photoshopped AI is still AI…
There’s no reason to assume the original image is AI generated.
Mom found the piss jacket
New Amazon uniforms just dropped.
Nathan Fielder actually did it, but with chili
It’s like the evolved form of a stadium buddy.
Hope I don’t find this guy discarded on the side of the road or on top of fire hydrant or the like.
