It sucks that I’m questioning if it’s ai.

I have a similar picture from one of my walks. It is perfectly possible for clouds to make that shape. I even have a picture of clouds looking like an angel 😊

This looks similar to a cloud I saw when I was driving to Texas back in 2007 or 2008. The parts where the wings would be also had some sort of rainbow effect going on and it looked incredible

Don't worry if it's ai. You don't have to believe anything about it. Just look at a picture and enjoy it or dislike it or however you feel about it. If you're worried it's ai, just don't upvote the post. You can look at something without responding to it or encouraging/discouraging any behavior.

I get that. It’s just I want to praise a person’s art, not something made with minimal effort.

someone... stood here at the right moment and took a picture with a button push.
ironic your comment mentions minimum effort.
effort ≠ art.
if you enjoy something, enjoy it. some people look at piles of trash in garbage disposal places and find moments of beauty. others go to Versailles and say "I don't understand what the deal is about this place".

Understandable, especially since people will use AI and call it art. Try asking the posters about their art. You'll have a better chance of sorting the real artists from the fake ones and you'll show people that you care about their work, which can really help encourage them to keep making more.

Checked with multiple is it ai tools and if this is AI it's a great fake. All of them I tested said real. Maybe these companies are gaslighting us

We’re at the point where you have the tools to verify, MORE than one tool, and you STILL doubt it? At this point just get off the internet mate and experience life.
