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?
The one thing that bothers me is the lack of chocks to keep it from rolling, but we can’t really see in the black area, they could be there, or the floor could have an indentation or something
Chocks are always fashionable, (and one should always be fashionable), but operators sometimes don’t bother during a quick move. And those rolls often get a flat spot due to the weight when you set them down so they are hard to get rolling on a level surface.
Even large rolls rolls of sheet steel don’t roll easily on a level floor.
This one’s real, but in the other one there’s no crane nor rails for it, and there’s no machine where it can go in like you see in the back of this one. I can’t put my finger on it but I have definitely ai vibes looking at it. As other commenter has said the machinery around doesn’t make much sense either.
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
Edit: Since I see how my statement might be misconstrued. I’m aware this particular pic is AI gen. I’m referring to OP’s statement about the axle being nonsense, which somebody else showed is standard practice. And that doesn’t really take away from my main point.
The freaking discussion showing the source and that it’s AI predates my comment by over an hour. You can attribute whatever you like to my statement, I’ve clarified my meaning and if you’ve never written a comment and had it come out sounding like you meant something else, good for you.
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.
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.

The photo is AI. There is a tag stating so, though it’s in French.

I’m not buying that given the second half of your comment. You’re just trying to weasel out instead of apoloigising.

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?
