Ugh AI slop
What are you seeing?
The tank doesn't make any sense.
the original circa 2017
Wtf. Why do Israeli tanks look like IRL Dall-E?
I rescind my remark.
no, you were right - even though it is based on an actual photo, it is also slop, because someone upscaled a low res version using a neural network.
compare the tank tracks in OP's image with the high res original photo:
I believe this deserves its own term, to discern it from purely generative art AI slop.
How about upscale slop?
Reactive armor. Weird physics stuff makes this kind of armor plating more effective at distributing forces of impact, this less damage to the tank itself.
I thought maybe the number of mounted machineguns was excessive, but yes tanks just look like armadillos now.
I think it's just filtered/blurred to cover up a low resolution?
