Recently, some netizens posted questions about whether the first-prize winning entry in a photography competition hosted by the Fujian Provincial Tourism Development Group, "Autumn Fog Shadows on a Lake," was generated by AI, which aroused widespread concern. The award announcement showed that after a professional and fair review, a total of 188 winning works were selected. Among them, the first prize work "Autumn Fog Shadow of Lake" was signed by Zhou Moujian. The reward included a 1,000 yuan bonus and a "Fresh Fujian" cultural tourism benefit card worth 199 yuan.
However, a photographer raised doubts. In the enlarged image, it can be seen that there are distortions on the edges of the building, and the outlines of many windows are skewed and deformed. Although there are six clear words on the building, they cannot be recognized. The comprehensive judgment should be generated by AI.
AIGC professionals analyzed that the texture and color transition of the leaves in the picture are uniform, failing to reflect the subtle differences in real photos caused by factors such as lighting and viewing angle.The overall details present an "over-smooth" texture, and this image is most likely generated by AI.
The staff responded that the organizer is currently undergoing comprehensive evaluation and discussion, and is currently unable to give a clear answer as to whether the work is produced by AI.
