Can someone explain to me the motivation and purpose for posting fake images like this? Is there some kind of pay out? I don’t understand the purpose…
-
The posted image seems to have been synthetically generated. Its octagon doesn't match the hexagon NASA published from the Cassini flyby (below):
-
Tjis picture is AI. The real thing is a hexagon and does not have stars in the center.
-
Some folks take joy in misleading people. It makes them feel smart. Others mislead people to make money.

So the AI made an octogon out of what is really a hexagon? #Saturn
-
This is AI slop and it’s not even a hexagon. That’s an octagon…
-

That's an AI image, it doesn't have stars in the middle.
-
Because AI doesn’t know that it’s impossible for stars to be inside a storm on a planet. It also can’t tell the difference between an octagon and a hexagon, apparently. 🙄

Dear @redditspaceviewes.bsky.social, When you post fakes such as this, are you aware that you're posting fakes or are you unaware that you're posting fakes?
-
You mean it doesn't have stars in the middle? Cue someone who's never seen a beehive speculating that the shape must mean something.

- This picture from the NASA Cassini mission shows a hexagonal cloud pattern around Saturn’s North Pole."
-
“The thing’s hollow – it goes on forever – and – oh my God! – it’s full of stars!”
-
Thanks for posting. Yes, it is only 6 sided. Still an amazing sight.
-
You know, I find it hard to understand how I have problems with everything I see anymore. But the storm on Saturn is not a hexagon. It's an octagon obviously, it's got eight sides, not six. So either the pictures screwed up, or the guy who posted this can't count. This would seem to be simple.
-
In fact is a fake. An hexagon does'nt have 8 sides.
-
Why are the stars visible that isn't how a photograph of the storm would work. You would see the planet if it was pointed at the storm, not stars this is either an artist rendering or AI.
-
Just about everything this account posts is misleading AI, often with "CREDIT:NASA" added to deceive you. Mute or block if you need to.
-
It's also a black hole and a wormhole somehow wrapped into one. I might make this into my background and pretend it's Kronos's farts.
-
its crazy to think that the sheer size of just one side is wider than the diameter of the earth!
-
the real images are wonderful enough, but, no, you have to drop more AI on us
-
Am I the only one or do you see stars in the center of that storm portal???
-
Mfs want AI to run the world but it can’t even figure out a hexagon
-
that's an AI octagon you dumb tit. the internet is just trash
-
Saturnians switched on their particle accelerator.
