ehm... shouldn't the motion blur be on the bike and not on the surroundings with a static camera?

Yes but luckily you can add words to any picture and post it somewhere online and assert that’s the origin.

It's one of those rare descendants of Vikings. The Biking.

I heard Zeus retired and wondered what he was doing now. Cycling apparently.

Wasn't that, like, the whole premise? That in a world where "cavemen" (apparently neanderthals?) exist alongside humans as we know them into the present day, "It's so easy, a caveman could do it" becomes racist abuse?

I guess the best you could do with that premise are a series of Very Special Episodes, but I bet that's not what happened. I didn't watch the show, like most people I was like "This isn't going to make a show worth seeing.

This isn't going to make a show worth seeing.

You weren't wrong

The show earned an extremely negative reception, becoming regarded as one of the worst television shows of all time.

The show you describe sounds pretty cool, but they just made the cavemen good at dancing, have big dicks, and I think they couldn't swim. It wasn't tasteful in the slightest

You couldn't even look through the comments? It isn't.

Actually at the time I commented, I only saw other people in the comments who thought the same. 🀷

In the context and how he said it, it implies the comments came after his imo. It was already quite clear at a glance by the time he commented.

Why is he saying "actually" if he's responding to being told he didn't look through the comments, by affirming he didn't look?

They said "I only saw comments saying XYZ".

Your response was "literally a lie".

Any context making you believe this is false does not make it "literally" a lie. At best, it's "literally" the truth being portrayed in a misleading way (which, I really don't think it is).

Not really sure what your goal is anyways. They obviously didn't see the comment. Why spend time hyper-analyzing the probability of if they might have seen it or not?

Hi, I'm from 10 hours into the future, I looked at every comment on this post and not a single other one called it AI.

1

The comment was bullshit in the first place and the fact that it wasn't AI was already pointed out. I am fucking tired of the slop police so maybe I'm being a bit too intense about it.

Maybe I misunderstood and he was agreeing with me that he didn't read the comments, but it just didn't come off that way to me.

Pedalling with crocs sucks. I do it sometimes when I go to my cabin and need to get back to the entrance 300 metres away. It's soft, pliable and uncomfortable.

I dunno man, I pedaled on flip flops I bought from some tourist trap in Ocean City for years and it never bothered me much.

I really want to know the original context of the photo. I suspect the face and hair are prosthetic and it's a younger rider doing something like a Jackass skit; like you say, the bike is easily upwards of $10k.

This is easily my favorite photo of the day. Why's he looking directly at the camera? Seems like he's in the middle of a pretty fast turn.

Its from a commercial, I'd link to it if I could remember what they were selling.

Still disappointing that it wasn't a real capture. Oh well, the internet lets me down again.

The scary/annoying part is, from now on there'll always be a little voice in our head ask: is it AI?

It looks upscaled or something though. And did the guy always look like that? πŸ€” I easily may be misremembering of course.

If you look at the frame of the bike, around where the rear shock is, it doesn't look right. Also, the scale is off, this dude would be ridiculously tall if this was a normal sized bike. Look at the size of the seat, for example.

-3

It's a Specialized S-Works Epic - a high-end cross-country bike. With the saddle dropped, I think any normal sized rider would look the same.

Check out the 9-minute mark on this video for a comparison - I don't know if it's the same version of the bike, but it should be comparable.

5

I'm gonna need some evidence for that.

It doesn't look like AI. The bike and everything makes sense. I can even read S-WORKS on the frame.

lol what an edit without telling people that you originally said it was AI slop without making that note in your comment

Look at the frame. It makes no sense. The front wheel has both disk brakes and caliper brakes, but the bars have no brake levers. The front disk with different slots on one side. I could go on. On the other hand, there is a bike that looks like this, so I'm not sure any more. That front disk is definitely not right.

After seeing the price of the bike I can see why he can't afford to wear clothes

Mate you're confusing mtb suspension parts for brakes and slop. The brake handles on these are short to be used with just a couple fingers and angled downwards.

Edit: yeah, that's exactly the kind of bike I meant.

25

As for the brake disc looking funny, it is similar to photographing a fan or helicopter blades. Unless your exposure is extremely short it warps the shape a little bit due to the speed of rotation.

7

front disk appearance is caused by motion blur and narrow focus.

9

Those are usual inconsistencies and errors and artifacts, and a healthy amount of incapability to explain what you don't know. Those have existed since long before AI.

I've seen this picture many many years ago, before stable diffusion was a thing.

I'ma gonna go with not AI on this one, even the motion blur seems to be ok, idk

I’m not sure about that, but it does have motion blur in the background, so unless it’s a fancy setup that tracks the movement of the subject, it was not an automatically triggered shot.

In some places in the UK, this question would be casually answered with "Oh yeah that's Pedaling Patel, he's always out on a Thursday."

German Twitch streamer Knirpz 50 years into the future is who that is. The crocs are clear giveaway.
