To be honest, I am having trouble sometimes in determining whether the picture either computer-generated or not. But when you observe their facial features, usually, those computer-generated images have blurred backgrounds and some of their features (i.e. eyes, nose, teeth, ears, and hair) are not proportional to each other. In this case, you can clearly see the disparity on the eyes, eyebrows, and nose.
Yeah, sometimes it ain't easy at all to spot them, if job is done properly. Worst of all, those generated images are getting better and better so soon we won't be able to spot the difference. If it wasn't for reverse image search it would be kinda hard to prove "Spase Roth" is a generated image. I have a strong feeling that rest of the team is done the same way (especially "Andrew Kang"). I tried to find it manually on several websites with generated images but to no avail. Have you check other team members, if you can notice anything weird there?
I also agree that people should exercise extreme caution in dealing with this project. There is a high chance that the project may be a scam in the near future.
Yep, I see no reason why legit project would do something like that. @irfan_pak10 asked team for a live chat so I am really curious how will they reply to that request. I like how one newbie defended Polkasocial there with that classic "so what if photos are not real" line.
a lot of projects don’t even use real photos these days and a lot in decentralized projects use avatars.. so cant really call a project a scam without due diligence. its fully functional on desktop and they have a app to.
What he doesn't understand is that it is one thing to say "we want to stay anonymous due xyz reasons" and to make whole fake identity of a team member, and not just some random irrelevant person in the team but of a most important person, founder of the project. He even went one step further and used that generated photo for his LinkedIn account.
