^^^ And so you will never ever be able to believe in any kind of image for the rest of time unless you took the picture. It is pointless to view images now.
Supposedly there is an AI Spanish model making 10k euros a month promoting products and lifestyle. She gets messages every day asking her out. Here, take my laptop, but give it back clean. |

There's AI image detection. I don't know how accurate it is, or for how long it will be. Counterfeit images have been around for a long time, via Photoshop type software- AI just makes it more effortless and it will certainly get better.
Scary times.

Honest question. What if they're via robotics?

The picture of that weldment has been around for many years...it is an amazing display of a stack of nickels...
I have personally seen a guy weld a soda can that was cut in half, back together... I wouldn't even know how to do it, but why not ask a AI engine to display a perfectly welded stainless steel tee joint

Maybe a robot weld. Very common on mass produced items. Unlikely an AI image.
One of my friends is a professional welder and has owned his own business welding for 30 years. He had a client bring some large parts to weld. When he delivered them the employees all came over and admired his work. The boss's wife saw the guys huddled around something and was convinced they were looking at porn. She started yelling for them to get to work, and she was ready to fire the pervert with porn only to see the pretty welds the company ordered. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Anti-aircraft tracers in the night sky above Yontan Airfield on the island of Okinawa on April 28, 1945. ![]()

Some guys can weld better than robots. The weave on that weld is phenomenal if it was done by hand.
Edit: as a welder I examined that image and can see each movement and there are the subtle differences. Someone welded that by hand. And if it's been around for awhile, then there's that. Last edited by Zeke; 12-02-2023 at 09:29 AM.. |

![]() No robot or AI welding there, just old school booger welding. ![]() Pretty much sure this is AI. But a cool representation of a 906 on a snowy road where that car should never go. ![]() ![]() Palm Springs ![]() ![]() 1930 Bentley 6.5 Litre Speed Six Gurney Nutting Saloon known as the ''Blue Train Special'' The ‘Blue Train’ Bentley Speed Six Few cars embody the glamour, speed and power of the pre-war Bentley era better than the ‘Blue Train’ Bentley Speed Six. In this car Bentley Boy Woolf Barnato raced and beat the famous Train Blue northwards from the Côte d’Azur to Calais.

TIG with side wire feed is extremely uncommon, I've only ever seen it once, and it sure wasn't that good.
