    What’s the source of this illustration of “history”?

      Wanna know, too. That looks nothing neolithic and much more medieval, probably clearing a place for a house or some farmland.

        What about it looks medieval? The tools certainly aren’t. The clothing is just tunics and trousers, which were the main clothing in Celtic and Germanic areas of Europe up until the early modern period, and lack any distinctive medieval features.

        It’s clearly trying to depict slash-and-burn farming, but it just seems like weird AI slop. I don’t appreciate AI slop being pushed to communities like “illustrations of history”. It’s just gonna increase disinformation in the world. But @Pugjesus@PugJesus@lemmy.world posts a lot of things with actual historical information which are clearly real. So… a mistake on his part? Mistake on my part, not AI-slop? This is why we want to know where you got this from, Pug.
