The only picture of her that I've seen is really pretty sloppy, too. I've certainly been fooled by a few AI photos at this point, but I don't think this one would have been among them.
If you see a fuller version of the image (this was linked below yours: https://www.inkl.com/news/scammer-says-super-dumb-people-drove-ai-generated-maga-influencer-to-1-million-followers-thousands-in-profit), you'll realize where those people were looking instead of the weird stars on the flag or smudgy phone camera.
Isn't it telling on our whole culture that a white girl's boobs are one of the things genAI seems to draw really, really well?
Idk, this one is pretty convincing from the one photo, at least on a small screen. If I was looking at the flag I might pick up on something being off, but nothing about the structure of modern social media drives you to look for the tells of artifice, and in fact we've been so conditioned to just sort of tolerate and ignore and accept as real airbrushing and Photoshop and even AI photo and video touch ups to the point where I think it's a lot harder to pick up on.
