Anyway, here’s how the pictures compare in any image editor (the darker the more identical the pixel):
Notice that I lined the UFO up, but the skyline is now all out of whack, which seems to be a lot of work to give to oneself if all you wanted to do was add 4 words. Similarly, I can line up parts of the skyline, but now the UFO is at the wrong place:
In conclusion: I am pretty sure it was done with AI.
You cannot align the cranes left of the explosion AND the warehouse to the right AND the smokestacks at the far right either, they, or rather it, moved random parts of the skyline around.
Did you ask a fucking AI to help you put text on this, or why is it so grainy?
No one’s ever made a photo grainy before, it had to be artificial intelligence!
Sure.

Upvoted for getting your hands dirty with the analysis. The grain doesn’t mean anything imo but yeah that alignment is fishy
I feel like it’s more likely the creator just moved the UFO for some reason, since lining the skylines puts just the UFO out of place.

First they came for the artists, then they came for the guys that put text on images.
I could easily see that being an artistic choice to add film grain to the picture for the bit.
Sure, however, it is not in this case.
