Okay I think you're missing my point. A few years ago I wouldn't have thought, "I wonder if this is real or just AI?" This is a great photo and I'm glad that it's presented at the Smithsonian. Sure images were photoshopped or edited in the past, but there were never so many photo-realistic images that were fabricated from nothing.
