image in question: https://wallhaven.cc/w/7jgg19
proofs:
- reverse image searched source has a "generated by AI" mark: https://www.freepik.com/free-ai-image/snowy-winter-landscape_395344223.htm
- image has photorealistic ice, but trees have nonsensical branches (i.e. this image is not a photo)
indirect proof:
- fuzzy reverse image search showed multiple AI generated images that look almost exactly like this.
And just personally It has very AI feel.

I'm also 99% sure that this image is also generated by AI: https://wallhaven.cc/w/2yp6gg
indirect proof:
- fuzzy reverse image search showed multiple AI generated images that look almost exactly like this.
- exact reverse image resulted in zero matches
but I couldnt find any glaring artifacts (yet?)
