    I don’t think so, I think she just didn’t think about it when posting for the pic

    The hair + shadows all look convincing

      The only two strawberries pictured are in the basket and in her hand, so that seems like a valid explanation.

      She is just an idiot.

      Edit: On further thought, maybe she is trying to feed the tree?

        Wow, you just made me think of “The Integral Trees” by Larry Niven for the first time in like 30 years. “Feeding the tree” is a euphemism for 💩 in that book.

        No maybe she’s not that much of an idiot.

        She’s trying to feed an ant on the tree. (…about right level of idiot.)

      Looks completely real. Might’ve been purposely wrong to drive engagement, or just didn’t think people would look that close

      The leaves also look consistent with the tree, but not identical or bleeding into each other. I also vote not artificial intelligence, but manual stupidity.

    Also possible: the image looks better with her standing, rather than bent over while picking strawberries

    This post is in itself a facepalm. Why is ‘AI’ the first thing everybody thinks of when they see an image they dislike / disagree with?

      Yeah, it’s becoming a boring trope response. I get we need to be aware of AI generated art, but not every single picture needs to be assumed as AI unless proven otherwise.

        Funny that before ‘AI generated images’ it was ‘photoshopping’. It’s gotten so popular that Photoshopped images are now represented as ‘AI’ and vice versa.

          It’s mad when you think how quickly things have changed. Even a few years ago you’d find it an enormous task to persuade people that it was software that had produced a picture. Nowadays you’d have an equally hard task persuading them it wasn’t.

      I thought it may be AI because the lady is picking strawberries at face level. I’m only aware of strawberries that grow close to the ground.

      Came to the comments to either confirm AI or learn something about strawberries. So far no luck with either but still reading.

        I think it’s just that the lady posing in the photo really doesn’t know how strawberries work. (I would go so far as to guess that she doesn’t know how a lot of things work.) She wanted to pose picking strawberries, which are a fruit, and fruits grow on trees, so she picked a random tree to pretend to pick them from. Who would even know the difference?

          To me, that’s the sort of thing people notice.

          She knows enough about strawberries to get them from the store for the picture. She should also know they don’t grow on trees. And there was probably one or more additional people there to handle the photography. Any one of them would know strawberries don’t grow on trees.

          AI on the other hand would easily make that assumption, especially art AI vs text AI.

            You’d think that, but I’ve met plenty of people who are wholly ignorant about where food comes from in general. Sure it requires only one person to be ignorant if it was generated, but it is entirely plausible that both model and photographer didn’t know. I don’t have the chance to test it, but I would imagine that there are many pictures of people picking strawberries realistically in the training data and AI would probably only generate this if you were very specific about it being a tree.

    The leaves look more like lime/lemon than either strawberry bush or strawberry tree (the fruit also looks like your good old extra hormonal strawberry coming from a commercial farm rather than being picked from a garden strawberry bush). Doesn’t mean AI though it just means utter and complete bullshit

      Correct. This is how honest home grown strawbees should look.

    Not AI. Lady just put some strawberries in a basket then held one up to a completely unrelated plant. She’s even holding it with the leaves facing her palm. Very clearly not actually picking anything. Just stupids being stupid.

      The strawberries in OP don’t look like those tree strawberries. technically strawberries do grow on tree, but this photo is still poorly staged.

      Even simpler: she had a basket of strawberries, picked one up and acted like she was taking it from the tree.

    It must be ai because all humans know we were born to be capitalist slaves. Not enjoy nature and wear pretty dresses and fall in love. Doing any of those three things would interfere with our ability to be capitalist slaves.
