The night-sky image so incredible the NZ man behind it has been accused of using AI
Photographer Brendan Larsen captured hundreds of long‑exposure shots of the night sky above a New Zealand mountain, later stitching them into a striking composite image. Critics have alleged the final picture was generated with artificial‑intelligence tools rather than purely from the photographs, sparking debate over authenticity in astronomical photography. The Guardian called the image incredible, highlighting concerns about AI's role in visual media.
