DU members will not be conned

[Bernardo de La Paz]

There is a version of the FBI picture they got from video. Very low-res, blurry, over-sharpened (necessarily). But there is a hi-res "photo" circulating that some non-DU members have gotten taken in by. It is made by AI, specifically Grok (Musk's). Notice the Grok logo in the bottom right corner (which some versions crop out). It gets the shirt graphic wrong and invents many details like a hard toed black boot in the frame.

Posted here so DU members can be aware of it.

1. One more way in which facial identification technology

and ai can be dangerous, fabricating a picture which might actually look more like someone other than the real culprit.

2. I saw phone video posted of someone who noticed the shooter run across the roof, he was all in black, stretched out.

4. AI can "hallucinate"

It does a lot of inaccurate guesswork (as seen on the t-shirt).

5. Using AI for this is absurd

The logo on the hat looks like a 💩 instead of Adidas.

6. Yes, there is no such thing as AI "zoom and enhance"

AI does not sharpen and enhance what is in the original image, it merely imagines what the detail ought to look like.

These are the original images:



You can see that the person standing behind the alleged shooter in the AI version does not exist.

Also, this is the image on the shirt:



Compare that to the shirt in the AI hallucination in the OP.
