# TECH NERDS INVENT FUTURISTIC AI PHOTOS SO REALISTIC EVEN YOUR DEAD RELATIVES WILL THINK THEY’RE ACTUAL MEMORIES
In a desperate attempt to make AI-generated images indistinguishable from reality, Black Forest Labs and Krea have unleashed FLUX.1 Krea, a new image model specifically designed to eliminate the “AI look” so that future generations will have absolutely no f@#king idea what’s real anymore.
EXPERTS WARN: “HOLY SH!T, WE’RE ALL DOOMED”
“This is a watershed moment for digital fakery,” explains Dr. Obvious Consequences, Chair of the Department of Things We Should Have Seen Coming at Reality University. “With FLUX.1 Krea eliminating telltale signs like waxy skin and blurry backgrounds, approximately 97.3% of humans will be completely unable to tell what’s a genuine photograph and what was hallucinated by a silicon rectangle on a Tuesday afternoon.”
The new model was trained on a “diverse, curated dataset,” which is corporate-speak for “we fed it every image we could find until it learned to perfectly mimic what human skin actually looks like instead of that creepy plastic stuff from earlier models.”
NORWAY SIGNS UP TO HOST OPENAI’S COMPUTING MONSTROSITY
In related news, OpenAI announced plans to build Stargate Norway, a massive computing facility that will house 100,000 Nvidia GPUs running entirely on renewable energy, primarily the tears of photographers who just realized their careers are completely f@#ked.
“We’re excited to bring 520 megawatts of AI computing power to Norway,” said CEO Sam Altman while standing in front of a PowerPoint slide showing a massive facility that would make Dr. Evil blush. “The excess heat generated by our systems will be used to warm local businesses, and also slowly cook the entire planet like a giant Norwegian microwave dinner.”
THE COMPETITION GETS HEATED, ALSO RENEWABLE
According to industry reports, Anthropic has somehow managed to snatch the enterprise AI crown from OpenAI, capturing 32% of the market share compared to OpenAI’s measly 25%.
“Companies rarely switch AI providers once they’ve chosen one,” explains financial analyst Penny Wise-Poundfoolish. “It’s like getting married to a slightly unstable partner who knows all your secrets—sure, there might be better options out there, but the breakup would be absolute hell.”
A FUTURE WHERE NOTHING IS REAL BUT EVERYTHING LOOKS FANTASTIC
With FLUX.1 Krea now available as an open-source model, experts predict that by 2026, approximately 78% of “photographs” on the internet will be AI-generated, including 92% of all LinkedIn profile pictures and 99.8% of dating app profiles for people over 40.
“Remember when we used to worry about Photoshop setting unrealistic beauty standards?” laughs social media researcher Dr. Idon Tcare. “That sh!t was like finger painting compared to what’s coming. Soon your Instagram feed will be full of friends who look better at 50 than they did at 25, all hanging out in physically impossible locations with lighting that defies the laws of physics.”
At press time, three different AI image generators were simultaneously being used to create fake protest photos, wedding pictures of celebrities who’ve never met, and an image of the author of this article looking significantly more attractive than genetics would ever allow.
