Spill the Tea

Okay, so boom. The B.C. Wildfire Service had to drop a truth bomb 'cause someone was out here posting AI-generated pics of the Drought Hill fire. Like, these pics were straight outta a video game – super extra and not the real deal.

Apparently, this "digital creator" thought it would be lit to create an AI image of the fire, and people started sharing it like it was legit. That's when the Wildfire Service was like, "Nah, fam, that's gotta stop." They're out here tryna keep it 100, and fake pics ain't helping.

The Drought Hill fire actually started 'cause of a whole truck fire near Peachland, BC. It caused highway closures and evacuations. But now people gotta sus out if what they're seeing online is even real!

How to Spot the Cap

So, how do you know if a wildfire pic is bussin' or just straight-up AI slop? Here's the tea:

  • Think About It: Would that even happen IRL? Does the angle of the pic make sense? Are there random airplanes where they shouldn't be?
  • Look for the Glitches: AI pics can be kinda "painterly" or have weird stuff going on. Look for blurry text, logical fails, or anything that just seems off.
  • Check the Source: Is the person posting the pic sus? Did they say it was AI-generated? Reverse image search that stuff, bestie!

Real talk: stick to trusted sources like the BC Wildfire Service App, the emergency alert system, and the news. Don't get played by fake pics. Stay safe out there!
