>>4320532Photos have never been "truth". EVER. I'm sorry, it's always been bullshit. Anyone who ever trusted a photograph was a fucking idiot.

because a photograph is a reality painting. It only needs to look convincing within the lenses FOV, at the resolution presented. But it doesn't have to be real.
>>4320529So you can not answer this question
>Why does the authenticity of the suggested branch in your potentially ai generated photo matter?I'll tell you why
Because the person who admits to going to a zoo isn't a liar, and the canonikon boomer with a 600mm f4/OM shitstem boomer with a 800mm f8 equivalent who claims to be a wildman had bait 10 feet from his heated, rainproofed hide. And one hell of a complex over his sunk costs. The zoo snapper EMBARASSES this guy. Severely. Because they all take the same photo: rare bird in front of blurry shit.
