The color palette is pleasing, but there's still an unnaturalness. Like still-life uncanny valley.
Is it AI? Seems not that old?
I don't know. I have it in my phone for 2 years, it is probably older cause a guy posted it on twitter that time. Back then AI was not so capable with images.
Two years ago it was plenty capable of this. There aren't any obvious patterns these "should" be, so it's difficult to spot anything "obviously wrong", but a lot of it has very AI vibes.
Here's the original, marked as AI: https://stock.adobe.com/images/stones-on-the-beachthe-rolling-stones%2Cthe-rolling-stones-copacabana-beach%2Cge/589377052
You can still like it as background. That's allowed.
The "obviously wrong" thing is that it looks like a photo of stones, but those things can't be stones (e.g. the feather pattern, radial patterns).. I guess someone could have 3d modelled it, but it seems too random for that..
But yeah, not complaining about the AI-ness, but "old" hurts when you've been using the internet ten times longer than the thing being describe 🥲
Oh thanks, i always got the feeling that was AI, but i liked the color palette too much to ignore that.
