Filtered and Ai generated pics

With the advent of new ways to spruce up a picture I’ve noticed it starting to happen more and more in the ads.  It’s getting to the point that I’m starting to doubt my trust in anyone’s pictures nowadays. I understand guys want to look their best but we are getting to a point that I can’t tell what’s real anymore.  Some guys way over do it and their skin is too smooth or blemish free and some have hair that looks fake.  After looking at some pics generated by midjourney of people that don’t actually exist, I’m wondering how long it will be before it infiltrates and overruns the ads and porn.  These two pics are somewhat obvious to me, but you could also argue that they are using a filter.   I wonder if providers will need to verify they are a real person in the future?
