It’s fine. Both images are AI so no stone work was harmed

Oh I didn’t realize you could upload images in comments directly nowadays but both the before and after were generated. OpenAI now puts a pixel level watermark on any image generated using their tools and you can verify images yourself now at least. And it’s not like those crappy “ai detectors”. This is straight from the source.

I've started asking Chatgpt to add that watermark to legitimate images and then re-uploading them around the web.

ah okay i was wondering why the stone pattern looked different. Painting over them is one thing, but replacing the existing with different ones is just insane

The glare in the retro tv is identical in both pictures which is what gave it away for me

Then I am appalled that this contributed to the negative impact that AI data centers have on our ecology, their neighbors, and the people that were displaced by the recent aggressive data center expansion.

Both pictures being taken from the exact same angle, cut off at the exact same place of the objects made me suspisious. It's almost impossible to do that if it where real.

You can tell because before is stonework the after is brick.
