    so the image supplied by OP has my AI senses tingling, at least the part on the right.
    something is off about the glow of the skin and the hairline.
    when searching for the whole image in tineye it does find a lot of instances of the left image.
    when searching for only the right image it doesn’t find any.

    while this does not mean a conclusive and definite indication that this is AI, i’m nevertheless doubtful.
    so, @ickplant@lemmy.world , where did you find that image? i feel that while his transformation of his iconic face is already ruinous enough, why would we have to go one step further and display AI altered results?!

      This picture was from the Cesar Awards, which is a film awards thing in France held a few days ago. It’s definitely not AI

        thanks a lot, that information was very valuable for the hunt of truth! so at the César award the pictures taken of him are definitely surprising as his normal face is hardly to be recognized:

        let’s focus on the last picture: we can see in the background the writing of the award’s ceremony and a screen with a person on it, the subject at hand is wearing a black shirt with a black bow tie.

        now we’ve got the same image composition of the last one (greenish background, screen with person in the back, head tilt) but he’s no longer wearing a bow tie but a turtle neck. also his eye colour has changed. so these last images are quite safe to be assumed as AI slop.

        this takes us back to the beginning, in the photo composition of this submission Jim Carrey is also wearing a turtle neck, so i think we can also assume by extension that it is part of the same AI slop generated series of images.

        @paranoid@lemmy.world for somebody with that handle, i would have assumed more skepticism ;)

          I approach everything with a healthy amount of skepticism, and alter my stance when presented with evidence.

          If you look up “jim carrey cesar awards speech” on your search engine of choice, you’ll see tons of articles about his changed appearance, and can even find his acceptance speech where he does his best speaking French. There was even an article published in the last few hours where he confirmed it was him and not a body double.

          There is no AI or AI slop. But there are changes in lighting and angles, which can have a massive effect on appearances.

      I got it off a post by a caricaturist, so if it’s AI, it could be him generating it but I doubt it. He probably grabbed it from someone else. Here is the image I cropped:

      You’re right. It’s absolutely been breathed on by AI. You can see it in the hair, it looks perfect / unnatural.

    Doesn’t look bad per-se, but he definitely doesn’t look like the Jim Carrey everyone pictures in their head anymore. In fact I would 100% not be able to tell you who the person in that second picture is.

    I wonder how much this gimps his iconic ability to crazily distort his face.

      It’s different lighting, different facial expression, different angle and 20 years different. Plus the right image is touched with AI.

      I just don’t see the big deal. Every has inflammation. It’s a known thing with age. Does he look different? Absolutely. It could be aging as much as fillers. He doesn’t look that different to me.

      To be fair, the one on the left is probably from years ago. His face immediately before the fillers on the right was much older than the one on the left. Putting those two side-by-side isn’t exactly an honest before-and-after photo.

    For a guy whos schtick was the elastic face impressions, this seems like a not so wise move, but to each their own…

    Remember when we were struggling through COVID and they sung imagination to us? Maybe we should sing a song for them to help them?
