Nothing about that looks like AI to me, beyond the uncanny valley feeling and the eerie lighting. The wallpaper and tile alone would be a big headache to get that consistent, especially with the mirror there. Same goes for the pattern on the clothes and the anatomy (hands, anyone?).
These people are scared of something they do not understand. It's not surprising that they also lack the technological skill to verify that the photo is real.
No one is able to, unless they fucked up the image generation.
Also, the hands look normal.
AI can mostly do hands now
Can they do complex mirror reflections like in the rejected photo though?
Yes.
Only after a second run through a hand-network (same with facial reconstruction and inverted faces)
It's funny how you just tell the AI to not do bad hands and it mostly works.
