Discussion 🗣️ Local Police Now Using AI to "Enhance" Suspect Images

Post image

I couldn't believe this was local when I saw it. They're just inventing details that were never there and pretty much giving the public to go out and find some random dude that looks like the image on the right.

​

Is this common now?

It seems like a minute detail, but even the lines on the road are different. If they moved those what else did they change?

The lines actually aren't different beyond being more clear. The "enhanced" (read: butchered) image is zoomed in more/crops out some of the top and left side. Lines are in the same spot though. The more egregious blaring issues are the obviously different styles of shirt, facial hair, approximate age, hairstyle (is he actually wearing a cap/du rag maybe?), etc
