If I'm walking down a street and there's music playing out of somewhere like a shop or someone's car, I always to take care to walk out of step with the beat to not make it look like I'm anything to do with it or even listening.

Butter Walk, Dartmouth, England between ca. 1890 and ca. 1900. Views of the British Isles England Dartmouth

#ButterWalk #Dartmouth #England #Devon #-smith #photography #historicalPhotos #photochrom

loc.gov/pictures/item/20026966…

This image depicts a historical street scene from Dartmouth, located in Devon, England. The photo captures what appears to be Butter Walk between approximately 1890 and around the early 1900s (ca. 1900). It shows two-story buildings with wooden facades featuring multiple windows on each floor level. Some of these buildings display signage such as "Butcher's Shop" and a partially visible name that seems to end in "-smith," suggesting various businesses housed within. The street itself is paved, likely made up of cobblestones or similar material typical for the period, with no vehicles present which reinforces its historical nature. The absence of modern infrastructure like telephone poles or traffic lights further suggests an earlier era before significant urban development and changes to cityscapes as we see today. On either side of the street are sidewalks that run parallel to it, bordered by what appear to be stone pillars or supports for shops on one side and a paved area with benches alongside trees in the foreground. The image has a warm sepia tone characteristic of early photographic prints from this time period which adds to its vintage feel. Overall, the scene captures an everyday view of late Victorian-era urban life in England, possibly showcasing typical merchant establishments found during that era within Dartmouth's Butter Walk area.

From Royal Hotel, Dawlish, England between ca. 1890 and ca. 1900. Views of the British Isles England Dawlish

The image depicts a scenic coastal town view, featuring an old-fashioned bridge leading to the beach with several boats anchored near it. On the right side of the picture stands a row of multi-story buildings in various architectural styles indicative of late 19th-century architecture. The central area is dominated by green spaces and pathways that lead towards different parts of the village, suggesting a well-planned urban layout. In the background, there are cliffs overlooking the sea with some vegetation on top, hinting at an elevated terrain near the coastline. A prominent feature in this image is the weathered bridge leading into what appears to be a small harbor or waterfront area bustling with activity. The overall impression conveyed by the photograph captures the charm and quaintness of a seaside town from that era, showcasing both its natural beauty and urban architecture. The sepia-toned color scheme enhances the historical feel of this snapshot in time.

Now Gemini can spot AI video slop.

Last month the app learned to detect AI images, and now it can do the same for videos. It still only works using Google’s own SynthID watermark, meaning it’ll only spot AI videos made by Google itself. No word yet on when it’ll support the industry-wide C2PA standard.

You can now verify Google AI-generated videos in the Gemini app.


Google Gemini is getting better at identifying AI fakes

Google is adding the ability to detect AI-generated images in the Gemini app, but only if they include Google’s own SynthID watermark.
