Fact
Newschecker found an earlier version of the photo uploaded on X on February 14, 2025, where you can clearly see the watermark of generative AI chatbot Grok on the bottom-right corner, suggesting that the image was AI-generated. Also, the overly glossy texture and the blurred background point towards the image being AI-generated.
We then ran the image past Hive Moderation, an AI image detection tool, which found the image 99.2% likely to contain AI-generated or deepfake content. Another tool, SightEngine, too, found the image 99% likely to be AI-generated, further confirming that it was not real.
