You were primed to be looking for flaws by the nature of the article. It wouldn't be hard to come up with a context where each and every one of the 3x3 grid of pictures in that article was accepted at face value.
- Retric 9y agoThey might work as thumbnails, but these are terrible when blown up to full size. When given both images I was trying to find one that might be real thinking it could be some freaky filter or something. And I still had a 'these are terrible fakes feeling.' Even the 'best' headline image fails as the eyes are not the same size and the rest of the face just looks off.
- delecti 9y agoDid you even read my comment? They're not perfect, but you were expecting them to be fake. Someone not told there would be computer generated images would be considerably easier to fool. Also, probably the bigger risk is not that you'll be shown an entirely fabricated image, but rather that someone could convincingly be inserted into an existing image.
- Retric 9y agoI was not thinking about fake images when looking at the article this was pure instinctive revulsion. It's easier to avoid the uncanny valley with pictures than motion, but some of theses fall deep into it and many others don't even make it that far.
