    As someone to old to have grown up with the term yeet, the missuse of it here annoys me.

    The bullets get yeeted sure. But they aren't catapulting pirates off their ship with a gun on their ship.

    Citation needed, there are many pics of this one and no real reason to think it's AI. Also the fact that the pic is at least 3 years old from when AI slop wasn't nearly as convincing.

    Huh, on closer inspection I think it was terribly AI "enhanced" at some point. https://www.reddit.com/r/Military/comments/jdadmm/minion_ciws_lmao/?show=original There's versions of it from 5+ years ago as well as ones where the barrel looks fine https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fo0qudv7ofnq41.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3Daa0ac0db241bcbe67a47b29fb180805f5ae58d9d

    There's also another angle also from around 4+ years ago https://www.therpf.com/forums/threads/phalanx-close-in-weapon-system-1-9-scale.307034/page-3 that shows a lot of the same features matching

    i hate this era of people calling every photo taken with mediocre phone cameras and "enhanced" via simple filters by most mid phones in the last decade ai slop

    edit: tbf this was edited/"enhanced" after that, but still
