Teacher's AI-generated fake Pollock fools no one: students spot the difference
Linahuaa · x · 2026-11-01
A teacher doodled randomly in a paint app, had AI upscale it into an "abstract expressionist" painting strikingly similar to Jackson Pollock's style, and asked students to compare it with real Pollocks.
Result: the students could all tell the difference. The author jokes that maybe the "abstract expressionism was a CIA psyop" theory wasn't totally bullshit—just a little bit.
