Reading a lot of “AI image vs cell phone camera image” stuff (like from @vgr earlier today) and… hoo boy… how do I explain this… :-)

The image straight off a cell phone camera sensor has only a tangential relationship to what you see on the screen. And that’s before adding “filters”. You’re not comparing an AI image to a photo. You’re comparing two AI images to each other, which is why they look similar.

Bullshit. One is generated from a prompt. The other starts with a real raw image. The CNNs inference process has some cosmetic similarities to filter convolutions but they are entirely different pipelines. This is like saying cows and leather hand bags have similar textures.
