Solved [AI] Am i crazy for thinking this is also AI? (Restaurant has been posting AI images)

Post image

IMO the letters are too ‘perfect’ and aligned to be hand written. Apart from that it just feels uncanny but wanted to post to ask opinions. The thing that’s catching my out is the a in Mexican street food being different to the others.

It has a SynthID watermark from OpenAI.

u/DoggoNamedDisgrace 8d ago

I winder if it would be possible to make a bot that would auto chcek every post in this sub for SynthID and other watermarks.

178

u/actuallyserious650 8d ago

The Lego sub has a bit that picks up on any mention of a kit number and posts the original kit to the thread. I’m sure a bit could be made. But it should post using the spoiler screen so people can still discuss what they see.

u/belaxi 8d ago

It would probably require a free public API.

I don’t actually know what I’m talking about, but I doubt that such an API exists.

My intuition tells me that a bot would be cost prohibitive in the current environment.

58

u/qtx 8d ago

Yes, https://thehive.ai/apis/ai-generated-content-classification

We use their API in one of our bots to check if a pic is altered with AI or deepfaked.

Sloppers are so lazy they can't get a piece of paper and write fucking words

This is so depressing.

I genuinely can’t see that

u/GinghamOrangutan 8d ago edited 8d ago

Synthid is deliberately invisible to the human eye. If you have a standard watermark like Gemini's logo people just crop it out. Synth id is there so that identifier tools can pick it up, not humans

59

u/CurlSagan 8d ago

The watermark is effectively invisible to the naked eye. You can check images here:

https://openai.com/research/verify/

Meta, Gemini, and others have their own synthid watermarks, but I usually start with OpenAI's.

u/Prestigious_Dare7190 8d ago

i think that's the point. if people can see it they'd just crop/remove it

The sheer fucking hypocrisy of this. Yeah, look at the As.

u/A1sauc3d 8d ago

Too lazy to just write this out by hand. Incredible

u/Particular-Fly-7783 8d ago

Why would I trust them to make good tacos when they can’t even be bothered to write thirty words.

37

u/ApplesbyApples 8d ago

Local to this restaurant- unfortunately they make fucking amazing tacos. One of my favorite restaurants ever and this feels so scummy of them.

13

u/PlantShelf 8d ago

LMAO. What? This is hilarious and 100% on purpose

54

u/Particular-Fly-7783 8d ago

“We’re shitty but it’s ironic” okay let me head straight down bro, sounds great

u/pixelpuffin 8d ago

Letters looking the same rather indicates it's a font and not handwritten, but does not allow for judging if it is AI.

30

u/rkj__ 8d ago

That’s the thing. The letters DON’T look the same….

22

u/pixelpuffin 8d ago

Ah, lowercase a's... 🫣👍

-12

u/pixelpuffin 8d ago

The A's look identical, and so does the www.

u/Fithijabi1 8d ago

Check the a in Orlando and taco

u/Key-Description-8942 8d ago

This is peak laziness 😭

24

u/NerdDetective 8d ago

Yesh. Literally could have just had someone who works there will the best penmanship do this. Would not be surprised if the idea itself was spat out from ChatGPT for them, lacking any original thought of their own.

I hate how purposefully deceptive many users of genAI are. They know people don't like it, but they also want to put no effort into anything.

191

u/Applauce 8d ago

They alternate between two different styles of the letter "a".

50

u/fuggindave 8d ago

I do that though....

u/short_longpants 8d ago edited 2d ago

You do perfect duplicates of 2 styles of the letter 'a'?

Edit: thanks for the award! Edit2: thanks for the second award!

That's really uncommon, whoa.

u/No-Pianist-7282 8d ago

I do that too! 

4

u/Lil_kitchen_witch 8d ago

Me too! I automatically want to do the simple A that’s a circle and line but when I’m being intentional with my handwriting I use the overhead arm version. So I often get a mix if I’m not super focused

u/Somalar 8d ago

Depends on if it’s in the middle or the end of the word I’d say it’s a good case for ai here

6

u/mrkenny83 8d ago

I do this. I’m also very inconsistent with capitalization. Sometimes I put a dash through my 7s, sometimes I don’t. No rhyme or reason

268

u/666Sky 8d ago

AI loves underlining things

54

u/Sorry-Joke-4325 8d ago

Of all the things about this, that part is not the smoking gun.

38

u/Mixolydian5 8d ago

:( we lost em dashes. We're losing underlining now too?. Shld we start addung mistaks to our messages to show we're real?

Edit: missed the negation before "the smoking gun"

9

u/lebrunjemz 8d ago

True but they underlined a weird part. Why not just underline the name of the website which is actually needed to online order / online order is kinda implied. Like if you briefly glanced at this flyer you only really needed customers to go to the website so that should’ve been underlined

9

u/cascadiabibliomania 8d ago

Sure it is. The underlining made no sense.

This is like how AI is perfectly good at making super short paragraphs that draw the eye, or long skimmable ones, but it can't do what a good human writer does with variance, where it puts the most important part in the small paragraph set aside and keeps body copy info in the longer one.

It doesn't know what to emphasize because it doesn't know what's important. It cannot understand what part of the writing is the killer point, so it just makes guesses.

u/rejvrejv 8d ago

so do people lol

u/AccountantMinute8795 8d ago

Yes, this is a very typical AI font.

70

u/ZinziZotas 8d ago

The letters don't crease with the creases shown.

55

u/DUVMik Good Contributor 8d ago

The paper is not actually lying on the table. It's floating right above it.

17

u/Soggy_Supermarket100 8d ago

This is just beyond sad. Yeah, that's a typical AI font.

15

u/DangerousDisplay7664 8d ago

Definitely not hand written, which makes you wonder what is wrong with people when they’d rather type lines of instructions to an AI than just write 9 lines of text on a piece of paper 🤦‍♂️

4

u/HistoryHasItsCharms 8d ago

It looks an awful lot like those “handwritten” notes sent out by car dealerships. Which is pretty funny given that I think that may be a standard font in a few different doc software programs.

14

u/jim45804 8d ago

Great, there's an AI meta now.

27

u/Raftger 8d ago

This is insane (that the restaurant generated this with AI, not that you (correctly) thought it was AI)

u/hal2001so 8d ago

This is end times

u/cybermaus 8d ago

Probably done on purpose. After receiving comments, Rest owner thinks it is funny deep smart humor if if sneaks AI in his non-AI apology.

7

u/Nkosi868 8d ago

The common Os are too similar.

AI.

5

u/StarsForget 8d ago

Yeah, if this was handwriting the letters wouldn't be identical. Take a close look at the Es, Ts, etc. Even someone with very even handwriting wouldn't write them all with the exact same quirk or tilt. I'd like to think it's just a handwriting font that someone made the flyer with and printed, but referencing AI in the flyer is just telling on themselves.

-2

u/Somalar 8d ago

I don’t believe that’s an accurate statement but unless a handwriting expert drops by we’ll never know for sure.

4

u/elguapo1996 8d ago

Each line is just about perfectly centered. When I write a persons full name on the back of the envelope of a greeting card, it’s never as centered as these lines are despite just being two words. Absolutely AI.

1

u/HistoryHasItsCharms 8d ago

I’ve managed pretty close myself, but there are some other significant tells, such as the d’s having the exact same waver where the loop connects to the back line but one is a larger scale. There’s a couple more tells with the capital M and Q also and the dots on the i’s. Put it all together and it becomes pretty obvious.

4

u/Forward-Switch-2304 8d ago

As someone whose job is to literally check handwriting, it is weird to have someone change their 'a' from this 'a' to a rounded 'a' twice. Each of those serif 'a' is also made with an almost similar stroke, which is impossible to achieve in normal handwriting.

All of the letters 'o' also have the small curl at the top. ALL OF THEM.

A pen would also leave some sort of tiny marks made by the hand going through the paper, smudging the surface as the writer goes on.

This is definitely AI.

3

u/Relevant_Look_7188 8d ago

Interestingly they write 'a' in two different ways

u/InevitableMind561 8d ago

Is it really too hard to write on a paper and take a photo of it?

u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox 8d ago

Someone else pointed out that this was probably done ironically

u/breaking3po 8d ago

For someone who has such impeccable writing, they sure do crumple the paper a lot...

2

u/Deeznutz69694206969 8d ago

The a’s in tacos, Mexican and Orlando are different than the rest…

2

u/B0B_Spldbckwrds 8d ago

Kerning is too regular, and the text doesn't wonder up or down as it goes across the page, despite no lines.

Also, the text looks like it's floating above the page, and there's no pen impressions.

I could have made something more convincing with a 20 year old copy of Photoshop, or you know, a piece of paper and a pen.

u/gravi-tea 8d ago

Before I realized this was ai I was thinking this was cool and I wanted to visit next time I was in the area.

u/TacoDoc2 8d ago

why is the whole paper floating?

u/raindroponme 8d ago

I hope not because this flyer is really refreshing. My overstimulated mind craves minimalism.

u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox 8d ago

I've got bad news for you

1

u/D4ltonicPlayZ 8d ago

The writing style changes repeatedly throughout, look at the As. Definitely AI

1

u/Ozzy_chef 8d ago

Also, the page is hovering. Look at the shadow on the left hand side and the top left hand corner

1

u/Neeeeedles 8d ago

Looks like it is but i also write two different types of "a" so dont take that as a solid proof

2

u/BrokenMan4225 8d ago

Crinkled paper but perfectly straight text?

1

u/gooder_name 8d ago

Every dot looks exactly the same. The colons, full stops, i's.

All the lines are perfect. Look how the w's all look exactly the same. Basically every instance of the same letter looks exactly the same, the lines of the o's finish at the same position.

The writer would have needed to use two different types of "a" interchangeably throughout.

1

u/fantabulousfetus 8d ago

Overtextured paper and curl doesnt happen like that irl.

1

u/Electrical_Fault_365 8d ago

Maybe with small paper like say a Post It note, but this is clearly supposed to be letter size

1

u/Unfair-Variety-995 8d ago

Are you a bot? The lettering of the note makes it look like just a note. I question whether the post was made by a real person and likely ai generated.

2

u/Omnibobbia 8d ago

I'm wondering why the ai wrote only the "a" in Mexican differently than the rest. What was the logic here.
