In the picture on the cleaned up version, it’s clear that the figure on the right is a bearded male. In that same spot on the Hamas version of the statue, you can’t even make out the facial features. This is probably AI. I cleaned up one looks like beautiful marble. The Hamas one doesn’t look like dirty marble looks like a completely different Stone.
Isn’t one a view from the back and one from the front?
It’s real alright.
No AI.
It’s all over X with videos and personal accounts.
Just accept it and move on.
That's the back of the seated figure's head in the Hamas photo, because the photo was taken from the side of the monument facing the Station (north). Apparently the protesters wanted to confront people coming and going from the station, rather than the cars whizzing by on the south side of the monument, where the Columbus figure is. You don't see Columbus in the Hamas picture. No AI involved.
