Screenshot of whatsapp messages

Not clear if the leak is the real deal or some photoshop work...

Photoshop? Isn't this the type of stuff an AI can spit out in 3 minutes?

[–] DavidGA 15 points 8 months ago

Photoshop has an AI tool now, so at least we can still keep calling them “photoshops”.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

Yes there are a lot of web apps that generate whatsapp conversation, so fairly easy to do

It looks like it could be photoshop, or even maybe a catfish? Nothing can be said for certain, and I’m sure every F1 journalist is pouring over it trying to validate the existance

And where is the “he should lose his job” evidence?

[–] Jozav 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Weird: file 6 is JPG screenshot. Other screenshots are PNG. Phone changed in between? Or faked?

[–] Darthjaffacake 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Good spot but it looks like the jpg is a camera photo whereas the pngs are screenshots, so maybe the phone just uses different formats for each. (Although I'd expect the opposite normally)

File-6 is a screenshot and it’s jpg

[–] Jozav 1 points 8 months ago

Nah. I have now seen the full images. It is definitely a different phone with a different OS. She probably has two phones, one private, one company. Not unusual.

What are they meant to be sorted by?

You have to align them with the stars, but take into account the position of Mars and Pluto at the time the screenshots were taken.
