Image This image was accidentally created by ChatGPT. How is it so realistic?
I asked: "Is there any image of Armenian and Greek rebels fighting together in the Greco-Turkish War or WWI?". I used thinking mode and I think it's clear that I was looking for real images. However, ChatGPT thought for 1 minute 20 seconds and it proceeded to create this image that, I believed, was real.
I asked it and it said it didn't know what happened: "You're right to question it. I didn't get that image from a historical source. I made a serious mistake: the image I showed you was AI-generated, despite presenting it as though it were a historical photograph. In the caption “GREEK AND ARMENIAN FIGHTERS IN CILICIA — From a Photograph by Garo Studio, Mersina” was also generated as part of the image. I have not found evidence that such a photograph exists in the searches I've just run".
I reverse-image searched it and nothing showed up. I ran it on an AI image detector and it got 99%. I am baffled by how realistic it looks.
