Kate Middleton Spotted Leaving Windsor Castle Since Her Recent Photo Mishap
Kate Middleton has been embroiled in controversy, receiving a lot of criticism from the public for her digitally altered Mother’s Day Photo. Daily Mail has now posted new pictures showing Middleton and Prince William going out of Windsor Castle since the controversy, for some personal endeavors of their own.
As per the report, Prince William was leaving for Westminster Abbey to attend the annual Commonwealth Day service. The report further claimed that Middleton was going out for some kind of private appointment. The two are seen sitting at the back of a car with Middleton looking out the window.
Middleton has been in recovery ever since her abdominal surgery in January. She is taking some time off from her royal duties. The appointment may be a planned visit to the doctor to check on her well-being. Her recent controversy continues as people have even gone on to suggest that her photo was entirely AI-generated. However, a new report has claimed otherwise.
New Report Claims Kate Middleton’s Controversial Photo Was Not AI-Generated
Kate Middleton‘s Mother’s Day Photo has received significant backlash from the public over its digital alteration. While the Princess of Wales has apologized for the mishap, it’s still being talked about. While many started thinking that the whole picture may be AI-generated, a university professor has claimed that it’s not the case.
Hany Farid, a University of California, Berkeley, computer science professor told ABC News that the photo contains only some minor digital alterations and declared that it is not AI-generated. He cited various reasons for the irregularities in the photo. He said,
“I think it is unlikely that this is anything more than a relatively minor photo manipulation. There is no evidence that this image is entirely AI-generated. “You see what looks like traces of manipulation. I think most likely it is either some bad Photoshop to, for example, remove a stain on the sweater, or is the result of on-camera photo compositing that combines multiple photos together to get a photo where everyone is smiling.”
In the report, Farid pointed out some irregularities around Princess Charlotte’s hand and her red sweater. Sources close to Meghan Markle also negatively reacted to the controversy, adding fuel to the fire.
