Internet users quickly identified the image as a design template from Canva, a popular graphic design platform. The photo shows the ‘siblings’ smiling side by side, but glaring inaccuracies have caused outrage among fans and supporters of Harry and Meghan.
The discrepancies were evident from the outset since the couple—who married in 2018—did not release the image. Visible red flags included a distorted path around Lilibet’s knee and the children’s concealed hands, lending credence to claims that AI-generated images still struggle with rendering hands and feet accurately.
One user on X expressed their dismay:
“Y’all creating AI images of other people’s children. Seek help, s**t is weird.”
Another pointed out:
“The kids don’t even look like brother and sister. They look like exactly what they are: AI.”
A third added:
“Hidden hands and feet are very strange. AI can’t do hands and feet properly yet.”
The incident highlights ongoing concerns about privacy and the ethical implications of AI-generated images, particularly when involving minors.
