Alt text: a YouTube thumbnail featuring a shirtless, bearded, grinning man holding a cucumber and a measuring tape. Next to him is the text “IT WORKED!”
A caption was added: “mesopotamian farmers after discovering irrigation”
The measuring tape seems to have the correct numbers though. AI tends to have trouble with generating images with numbers or letters in them, and I think that if this was AI generated, it would have nonsense characters and numbers out of order.
In Photoshop the AI tool allows you to generate only a specific portion of an image. The eyes appear to be the same but the mouth is different and the ruler is slightly bent. Reverse image search shows only this post
Ok I’ll be honest. I used faceapp to give the guy a thicker beard and a smile. no particular reason, I just wanted to see if anyone would notice the difference lol
May actually be AI. The original video has a different face and this is the first time I’ve seen this version, looks uncanny.
