    I’m embarrassed to say that for me it took until the H in Human. It’s clearly an “It”. Which, considering how incredibly meticulous the rest of the sign was (itself quite suspicious in retrospect) is very jarring and out-of-place. The fact that the H is transformed not just into mess, but into a perfect rendition of two other valid characters is a very AI type of mistake to make.

    There’s also, in retrospect, the question of where the photo was taken from. The photo shows an angle of the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge that I don’t think is possible, especially when you add in that brick footpath and metal railing. It resembles, perhaps, parts of the railing from Circular Quay, which is west of the Opera House, and thus cannot show both Opera House and Bridge in the same photo. The angle appears to be from near Mrs Macquarie’s Chair, but here’s what the view looks like there:

    There’s also something just a bit “off” about the whole text. It looks digitally super-imposed. I’d be prepared to believe it was Photoshopped in over a blank board (or a board with a different message) even if it isn’t AI, long before I’d believe it’s 100% genuine.
