Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra moon photo advertisement was labeled "fake" by Twitter when it was embarrassed.
CTOnews.com, April 26 (Xinhua) Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra's "Space Zoom" zoom camera function is a big selling point of the phone, which can use 100x zoom and artificial intelligence technology to take clear pictures of the moon. However, this feature has previously sparked controversy, and some people believe that the photos are digitally processed "fake" photos. According to Sammobile, a recent Samsung ad on Twitter was even more embarrassed.
According to a screenshot shared by netizens seen by CTOnews.com, the Samsung ad reads: "shooting the night sky with Galaxy S23 Ultra, there is no dark side of the moon. Reply to your photo under this post and add # SharetheEpic." However, at the bottom of the ad, a Twitter community note appeared that read: "Samsung phones' fake 'photos of the moon to make them look clearer."
Community notes are fact-checking information provided by contributors on Twitter. Contributors can add notes to any tweet, and if enough contributors think it is useful, Twitter will publicly display it at the bottom of the tweet. Anyone can report notes, and the tweet writer can ask for further review. But it's ironic considering that the note appears on Samsung's paid ads.
Samsung has previously denied that the moon photos are "fake". Samsung said it did not add any image overlay, but through the use of advanced technology and artificial intelligence, the combination of multiple high-resolution images to achieve the final clear effect.
Twitter community notes may be trying to express this, but the principle behind the moon photo is complicated. Currently, Twitter community notes are only available in a few countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, so it is likely that most people will not see it.
