People out here downvoting the implication that this is an artifical image. AI or poor photoshop, this is shaping up to be a real reddit moment.

There is definitely some interesting things happening here. If not AI, it's definitely showing characteristics of being artificial.

yeah it's definitely (poorly) upscaled by AI but originally it was a real picture

Look at the other pictures posted in this comment thread. The picture OP used was a particularly terrible version of it for some reason, there are other versions that don't look nearly as bad.

Yeah so apparently it's a real picture taken quite some time ago that has been upscaled. It looks absolutely horrendous though and 100% fake, especially the parts you highlighted. I guess I'm not terminally online enough to recognize a repost or something, but weirdly enough I'm OK with that.
