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.
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.
At least it’s not AI slop.
I swear this image has been around for ages, way before AI could generate anything this well
The scary/annoying part is, from now on there’ll always be a little voice in our head ask: is it AI?
And the answer is “no” most of the time.
It looks upscaled or something though. And did the guy always look like that? 🤔 I easily may be misremembering of course.

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.
lol what an edit without telling people that you originally said it was AI slop without making that note in your comment
Who, me? 😇
But he has the right number of fingers!
