Just to clarify: no robots were involved in photoshopping the image. Regardless of the author's "trusted source's" statement, the image is clearly shopped to remove the score overlays on a video still (as @mrnibbles http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2571979 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2571979 mentions). The cloned areas of the original image indicate that whatever entity did the shopping had a contextual understanding of the image, which means it was a human (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2236/5733655921_b28748984b_o.png http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2236/5733655921_b28748984b_o.... -> http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5101/5734289061_34f76398e9_b.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5101/5734289061_34f76398e9_b.... -- note that the foreground subjects are not `cloned`).
This was either a quick hack job by a person, or the work of an extremely sophisticated machine vision program.
