It's definitely not AI. It's on display as part of the B Reactor tour. You can find other photos of the same display. For example:

Are you a troll? That Reddit image is from 5 years ago. LLMs were not capable of creating that 5 years, ergo it’s a real fucking place.
Dude just look up the reactor he's talking about.
There's some news articles from 2019 with almost identical images.

Use your brain instead of some automated tool. The model the tool is using is probably using these public photos as part of it's training data
Ironically using "ai" to detect "ai", poorly.
