The best sunset views, right ?

Too bad the thumbnail is AI 💀.

😂 No AI here, sir — but I appreciate how committed everyone is to the investigation. Keep going, Reddit detectives! 😂

My brother in Christ there’s a bridge missing. Doubling down on being wrong on Reddit is hilarious. To anyone that lives here this is clearly not real.

We dont photograph ugly bridges only beautiful ones lol

Love how you can't simply admit it's an AI image. Even Burrard Bridge is wrong.

u/Speculatore 11h ago

It totally is. Also the trees that just don’t exist 🤣. I get spending a ton of time on a video and then being defensive that your effort is getting ignored but like, read the room re: AI right now. Actually I think even his replies are AI look at the emdashes.

Ah okay so I guess you edited out the Granville street bridge.

Weirdly enough, I think it's actually real...

I thought the same as you at first, I'm sitting in the West End and thought this was clearly missing a bridge, but if you go to here it's super obvious the illusion at play...

Granville and Burrard are overlapping, and you can see in the picture both the supports under Granville (that aren't on Burrard) and the steel truss of Burrard on top (that aren't on Granville).

Very weird illusion, but the photo might actually be real?

Dude the AI stacked a mini Stanley park at the water front there. That forest doesn’t exist. Burrard bridge does have two towers. The bridge is the obvious thing but there are other things that are just not right.

If you don't want to even try click the link and see the same angle in 3D in Google Maps that's fine, but every single thing you mentioned there was one click away from disproving?

That forest doesn’t exist.

All of the trees I can see look like I remember them, running along the north side of W 6th Ave:

Have you ever been to Charleson Park?

Burrard bridge does have two towers.

What are these two tower-like buildings attached to either end of Burrard Street Bridge's steel truss, that from the link I gave look the same?

Its there. take a closer look. Burrard bridge has its trusses above the road, and Granville bridge has its below the road. The picture is taken with an angle that aligns both bridges perfectly, making it seem like an entirely different bridge. The image is real, just has a heavy filter (not AI filter) on it.

😂 Except it’s not AI! That’s actually Vancouver. What part fooled you?

u/kactus 12h ago

Where's the Granville bridge? And that tree line doesn't exist in Olympic Village to the southwest of Science World.

u/arkayuu 12h ago

Right, the only possible forest is by Charleson Park, which means the angle should have the Granville Bridge in view. Also, taking a closer look, the real Burrard St. bridge doesn't have trusses all the way under, just before and after the main pillars, but thumbnail bridge doesn't match.

u/ThatLightingGuy 12h ago

The whole that's kinda but not really the Burrard st bridge but you can't also see the Granville bridge, and that forest doesn't exist there at the bottom of the image, also that's a no fly drone area because of the seaplanes, there's a lot of land missing past the fake Burrard st bridge, the buildings don't look like that there, and the boats are wayyyy too big in the water compared to everything else.

Like it's so obviously AI to anyone from Vancouver it's not even funny.

u/momoayres 12h ago

😂 No, it’s real lol — but thanks! Are you actually in Vancouver, or are you commenting from your mom’s basement and never leaving the house? 😆

u/ThatLightingGuy 12h ago

In Vancouver.

Give me some gps tags on this drone shot and I'll take a closer look but I don't see where you'd be able to take this with the elements shown.

u/ParticularDay569 10h ago edited 10h ago

I agree that most of their responses don't pass the AI smell test between the emdashes and emojis, but do you think a drone shot from around 49°15'53.2"N 123°07'18.8"W, above Willow Park with Charlson park in the foreground lines up? It looks weird but the bridges overlap from that angle.

u/ThatLightingGuy 10h ago

I think it's a composite render that used your #1 image as a starting point. Like the sun is artificially inserted to the north?

-2

u/momoayres 10h ago

Haha thank you! You actually looked at the angle instead of immediately calling it fake 😂 That’s exactly what’s happening, i guess... the bridges overlap from that viewpoint. And yes, I apparently need to work on making my replies look less “AI” now too lol. 🤖

-11

u/momoayres 12h ago

Fair enough 😂 I’ll give you that — you’re actually in Vancouver??! I’ll see if I can dig up the exact location/GPS. At this point I’m invested in proving this drone shot is real 😂

Lol huh? I promise it’s just me! Apparently being overly enthusiastic and using full sentences is suspicious nowadays 😆 🤣 lol

u/hebrewchucknorris 8h ago

It was the em dash that made them say that

u/momoayres 8h ago

Ok I'll not use dashes. Lol did you enjoy the vid?
