I did read the article. I don't doubt that it's a real photo, we are in a factual history sub after all. I was just trying to say that the surreal nature of the photo makes it look AI generated at first glance, but with closer inspection, it's clearly not.

Not every photo has an article attached to it detailing it's authenticity, so it's important we remain able to pick out AI generated fakes.
