Like the splice is obvious in the foreground but I can't see it in the background at all. Like I have no idea how this was done. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] MilitantAtheist@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago Thanks? permalink fedilink source parent [–] tb_@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago (1 child) There's some amount of AI-fuckery going on. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 point 4 months ago (1 child) Nah, I just wasn't looking close enough, it's just a simple paste of one image on top of another from the same angle. If you follow the line where the truck ends upwards, you can see a similar line on the roof of the building and the tree in the background doesn't quite line up perfectly (but it's close enough that our brains assume it's fine). That might have even been done in paint rather than gimp or ps. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] tb_@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 child) There is some line on the roof, but the roof still strangely lines up. The tree in the background nor the sky have a visible line. Furthermore the text on the tire is garbled, and the whole image has this "covered in vaseline" feeling to it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 point 4 months ago (1 child) You're right about the sky, though I think the tree does have a line but the blur hides it (I can see it when I include the line in the roof but not when I block it). I'd say that it is more sophisticated than paint, but that an image editor was used to take the cloud from only one of the images. I disagree that the tire text is garbled. https://www.bfgoodrich.ca/en/auto/garage/articles/making-of-the-ko3-tire here's a picture of a similar tire with the same text.
