    Surely that smoke plume and aircraft are edited in. They are crisper than the objects in the foreground lmfao.

        We sure this isn’t an AI image that someone edited after the fact? Cars parked erratically, girls look like dolls and their hands are weird, the hi res smoke plume, and what is going on with the guy in the back right.

          Reports on shudder Reddit claimed the bikini clad women are AI. I find this entirely plausible:

          1. Compared to the little girl they frankly just look AI.
          2. I grew up in the 80’s; Women’s swimsuits of the day were usually one-piece, with high cut thigh openings. Bikinis like this were not a thing I recall ever seeing back then.
          • Here is an example that appears accurate to me. There were bikinis of the day if course, but the picture clearly shows how differently they were cut:

          Why does the girl have yellow lines on her legs that match the very strange circular markings on the ground?

        I’m gonna be honest, I didn’t notice the plane at all.I was too busy thinking that the whole picture feels like AI for reasons…

      The aircraft definitely appears so.

      The plume doesn’t seem as much, as I remember smelter stacks were much more commonplace.

      Residential and commercial development right next to largescale industrial operations is very 20th century American.

        I could believe the bikini girls, too. I assumed it was a charity car wash, which was pretty common on weekends. Haven’t seen those in a while.
