US senator Mitch McConnell on Sunday revealed for the first time that a fall led to his hospitalization, breaking the silence about the Kentucky Republican’s condition after weeks of mounting speculation about his health.
The statement included a smiling picture of McConnell with his wife, Elaine Chao, a tacit response to speculation online that he had died or was incapacitated. McConnell held a copy of Sunday’s Washington Post sports section in his hand.
Jeans in a hospital bed. No buttons on her shirt (except the collar). Weird wall perspective between them. Not a single IV pole or monitor in sight. The newspaper text is garbled. And what kind of hospital bed has wooden armrests and no handles or adjustment buttons? This is some phony shit.
Not a bed, it’s a chair. I’ve seen plenty like them in hospital and nursing home rooms.
The buttons on her shirt are covered by another panel of cloth; I’m sure there’s a name for it in the clothing industry but I don’t know what.
“Covered placket”, aka fly front. You’re welcome.
Thank you 😁
The newspaper text is slop.
You do you. (I just think it’s out of focus.)
It’s not a bed it’s a coffin
Lol I love having fun with theories as much as the next guy but it’s very clearly just poor quality. The original newspaper I’ve just seen says “ Noskova Claims title in all-Czech showdown “ which I can even pretty clearly see it does say “ all Czech shutdown ” at the bottom. I would love for someone to prove me wrong and show me an AI that’s even capable of replicating something that convincing, it can’t put a real newspaper in there with accuracy like that no way. The room does kinda look like the backrooms but I’ve seen lots of clinics like this,i t is the USA after all.
What I do think is fake is how cognizant his statements are. No way he’s this sharp anymore and just like Biden they are playing up how not-braindead he is behind closed doors.
This is what I’ve seen floating around
Could just be post-processing I guess.
Lol the bottom one is clearly the original ran thru an AI filter and interpreted by it wrong. The original one is a real WaPo sports section I don’t believe AI could replicate a blurry one so well. If the original was completely AI generated it would look like this.
Can you post the original article for comparison?
Edit: nvm got it!
What does the actual paper say for that headline? That’s the whole point of holding that day’s paper, so others can compare to see if it’s the same paper, not just some paper with that day’s date on it.
Uh
I’m not even on the AI conspiracy wagon but that don’t seem to match up.
Edit: hmmm… Maybe? If I squint?
In any case, I doubt they’d use AI. They know people will look at it through a loupe.
Jfc…look at the edge of the real newspaper photo: sharp 90 corner, look at Mitch’s paper: rounded corner. They used the real page as the reference for AI generation. Text is slop.
It’s photoshop slop. No AI necessary.
But Eralean rhinns alic be ali- carcia aberodermc could be a real headline.
Anyone have the original for comparison?
I don’t believe it because they wouldn’t be that sloppy. I can photoshop todays paper into the hand of Cthulhu and I don’t even need AI.
It sure looks fucking weird though. Ngl.
Honestly I don’t see how any of that could resemble English prose.
Genuinely, does anyone have the paper? Because it feels like people don’t.
Edit: ok it’s posted below.
In the real newspaper, the last two lines are “in all-Czech showdown”, and the photo does look like it says that. It may have been photoshopped, but it wasn’t AI garbled.
