Comedian and anti-vaxxer Jim Carrey’s iconic looks have changed, he was at the French César award and his new look went viral, people discussing whether he had been using fillers.
His use of cosmetic procedures is not the topic at hand, but whether the right image is AI or not.
This came up in this thread, my argument being:
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.
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?!
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.
some agreed with that line of argument:
You’re right. It’s absolutely been breathed on by AI. You can see it in the hair, it looks perfect / unnatural.
others remained skeptical:
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.

he’s gone full noem
