Why does it feel like an AI generated image? Am I the only one getting this vibe?
Hyper-detailed foreground with a blurry background and a subject matter that falls into the uncanny valley? Yeah, that all checks out.
E2A: Zoom in on smaller sections and it becomes more obvious. Objects that should be in the same depth of field have different levels of blur, patterns don’t follow rules, it looks like the jacket has buttons, but half of a zipper on one side? There’s a lot of little things.
You are good at pointing out what feels wrong in the image. It could be a case of very heavy editing or AI-powered filters without necessarily being completely ai generated but I still stand by my initial impression that it gives and AI vibe and you are right about why
Musk really did post this.
Whether he used an AI generator or not, it’s possible. But honestly, I could easily see him paying for a photoshoot for this since he announced moving SpaceX to Texas.
The cut off conspiracy theory image 🤣
Not to come off as a musk fan-boy (I am most certainly not), but that’s a damn good photograph. Absolutely a professional photoshoot with hilariously high-end wardrobe.
Dude spent a shitload of money on a photographer so he could feel like a cowboy for a few minutes.
Edit: I’m still not sure it’s actually a real photo though, it doesn’t sit right with me.
You may be right. A few other comment here have remarked at his neckerchief being not quite right. That also doesn’t exclude the possibility for a digital touch-up, or a photoshoot as a dedicated training model for AI.
Ooh, I hadn’t thought of the possibility of Ai enhanced regular photo.
Of course, the Muskrat and Faceburg have both always given me “uncanny valley” vibes just because that’s how they look normally
I wanted to say that outfit slaps also, glad i found a homie to agree.
Somehow it makes his face even more slappable though. Mannnn can you imagine how good it would feel to hit a stinger on that gob?
If it’s real, I’m confident he had some competent assistant hire a competent crew for that photo-op. I’m guessing a competent PR consultant suggested a good photo-op in the first place, hit the right buttons to appeal to his wannabe cool image.
If it’s fake, some competent developer created a good tool, fed with competently selected data to create a rather convincing image.
What I’m trying to say is that there most certainly were several competent people involved in the making of this picture.
Just not the subject.
Fair, I wasn’t wondering if he did or didn’t post (I guess it could have been a fake tweet too, one can never be too sure). Just pointing at the aesthetics in the image, there’s something uncanny about it
Yeah, in hindsight that’s completely fair
Because it is either an AI image or it has been processed to look like one.
You know it’s AI because the hat isn’t on backwards this time
It doesn’t need to be AI generated. He is that ugly and weird.
It probably is why bother with the dress up when you can generate the photo after some trial an error.
The scarf looks rather strange. Some partitions are square patterned while the rest follow some arbitrary dotting.
Yup, that seam/twist there on the foreground is almost a definitive giveaway
Edit: I mean I guess that especially a rich person could, for some reason, wear a weird ass scarf designed by someone who thinks in a very out-of-the-box way… but which is more likely?

This is douchebag Musk we’re talking about. Either one is equally possible, lol.
That’s because it’s an ai image by the looks of it
One of the community notes on the post said it was posted the day before by another account, and an AI image detector flagged it as AI with 90% confidence.
Musk using an AI image to fantasize about being some badass cowboy is both pathetic and absolutely expected lol
If he’d gone and bought a cowboy hat in the last few weeks, they would’ve at least attempted to sell him a summer hat (straw) instead of a winter hat (felt). Not definitive but strange.
What was the Texan saying?
All hat no cattle?Time to refer to the checklist:
[x] Hat [ ] Cattle[] Working class [] Predominantly people of color [] Poor [] HardworkingAlso predominatly homosexual.
He keeps his cattle at the factories.
The man wouldn’t last an hour working on an actual ranch.

He’s the very definition of a Dude. He’s the target demographic for dude ranches.
This is what a REAL 🤠 looks like:
Looks like the kind of guy who enjoys salsa from New York City
NEW YORK CITY!?
Good lord we’re old…
Wanker, Texas Rager
Aside from not wanting to pay taxes and being a rightwing asswipe, why does he think moving to Texas is a good idea? They don’t have a functional power grid and it’s not an appealing place to live for any of his employees who have a half a brain.
Fewer employee protections
It’ll help weed out those who aren’t True Believers.
We already know what he looks like in a cowboy hat, and that ain’t it.
Ketamine cowboy.
Well, it is a horse tranquilizer…
How does this guy think his mustache looks good. I’m sorry to bodyshame but man my mustache grows the exact same way and it is equally unflattering to grow out. And he has far more money to spend on barbers
He was deep down a K-hole and thought it would be a good idea to glue his own pubes to his upper lip.
And of course he adds in a picture of John Wayne, the draft-dodging, woman-beating, other wannabe cowboy poser.
He’ll do well there, he’s got those horse fucking eyes just like Lee
Only thing that comes from Texas are steers and queers
Snakeskin cowboy
