This is absolutely heartbreaking! We took our kids for a once in a lifetime trip in August to California after not travelling since before the start of COVID. They fell in love with this city and it was all they could talk about for months. π
This video doesn't make geographic sense (if it's supposed to be of the fires), because all fires were west, north, or east of Griffith Observatory and this video is aimed mostly south.
Or, it's just poorly captioned and this is the sunset through all the smoke and the sun set more in the south?
Who knows?
But what I do know is that even if fires are a distance away, the sky looks different, and the sun is red in color. I've seen a few forest fires myself, I live in Washington State.
Possibly. It still looks hinky. I don't see the tall buildings along Wilshire, and the foreground looks...off. I could just be overly suspicious with AI possibilities being passed around.
I know what you mean. Is that bad compression on the foreground or AI rendering a favella? I worry that AI is already so integrated in phone cameras that even real photos look like generated nonsense

Sad this is happening, angry at humans. Predictable.

I guess real extinction is a small price to pay for conceptual equity growth
