It's not just our providers who are photofrauding...

A politician in the Netherlands who won a council seat in a local election has denied that her publicity photograph was AI-generated.

The photo that appeared in a local newspaper of 59-year-old Patricia Reichman looks very different from what Reichman actually looks like. In the official candidate photo that she personally provided, she looks much younger and has different features. 

Reichman has denied using AI, instead telling Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad (AD) that she used unspecified software to boost the resolution.

And Ronald Reagan’s cheeks were naturally pink 

Before we had AI, we had Glamour Shots.  The realtor who showed at my house never looked like the one in the ad

Yeah, female realtors are really something. They post photos of themselves on signs taken 25 years ago or longer. When they show up it’s staggering how different they look and not in a good way.

I especially love when I still see those pics today on ads or mailers.  I’m like “That looked bad 25 years ago….you’re not establishing trust with me as I look to buy my next house” 🤣

Kitchen counters redone. Agent headshot fit for the time capsule under the manicured lawn. Release update stuck in escrow.
