A lot of (if not all) of those "real" images have postprocessing that makes them look fake. AI uses fake postprocessing to make things look real. Its like taking a real thing and a fake thing and applying a filter to both so that they meet in the middle.
I get the point, but also, if they want a better comparison they should exclude "real" images with filters, faked depth of field, bloom, etc. applied.
Edit: all right, so it's not as exaggerated as I thought. On the ones that look really conniving I wonder how much was "generated." Was it just a face swap or eyes or whatnot?
