This is an old ass photo that predates AI.

I also thought it looked a bit sloppy. I couldn't find it with a reverse image search, and AI detectors seem convinced it's fake. Where's it from?

I mean, even if it predates modern image AI generation, we've had photo manip for a lot longer. Someone could've just edited it the old fashioned way. I did some pretty convincing photoshops back in the day.

For some reason it doesn’t come up on TinEye, but often I’ve found it to be very hit or miss. Where this file is from is Discord, but I searched for it earlier on another reverse image lookup site and saw an older imgur post with it. But idk maybe people have been churning out AI shit longer than I think? I’m so fucking tired of trying to put images under a microscope to see if shits real or not.

I work with similar network based LED signs and you can have them show IP or MAC when they’re new out of box. The ones I get always are set to 192.168.1.200. So idk this isn’t that surprising to me.

That train looks sus, like the tracks look a bit wide and they just end there with no barrier or anything. I've been to the end of the line on a few different light rails and there is always some sort of barrier to both stop trains from going off the tracks and to prevent idiots from driving onto them.

Edit: there's also no railing on the platform with a hefty ledge and what are those bollards doing on the platform?

Networks.baseline on Instagram in 2024. Doesn't predate ai, but potentially a shoop based on some of their other posts
