While shopping in Kuşadası, Türkiye recently, I got an unbelievable deal on a Rolex watch.

It’s not a distant alien world — it’s right in the heart of Mexico. In the state of Hidalgo, the Red Dunes stretch across the land like a scene plucked from Mars itself. Their striking crimson hue comes from iron oxide-rich soil, giving the terrain its signature Martian glow. Dry winds sweep across the landscape, shaping the soft, rust-colored sands into rippling waves beneath an endless sky. Far from the tourist crowds, this remote, surreal destination feels untouched by time — a hidden treasure where Earth shows off its most otherworldly side.

Really, with all the Vets we have here (and many of us have and had as personal friends) instead of acknowledging them, you say that??
Sorry, but I didn’t know that it was a AI generated image, I was thinking about the message.

I don't disagree with the message at all. And I wasn't criticizing you either. If you took offence, I apologize.
My complaint was with how AI is invading every aspect of our lives. So much so, that when doing a search to express real sentiments, an AI generated image is often the first thing to pop up.
Something like this might express your thoughts better.
