"Mashed potato recipes aren't the only things being whipped up by AI this Thanksgiving. Digitally altered family portraits are also on the menu - and some are starting to look more realistic. RFK Jr., parodying his famed photo dining on McDonald's with President Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Jr., and Elon Musk, swapped the Happy Meals for Brussels sprouts and cranberries. Alex Jones appeared to cook a turkey with Sydney Sweeney. Crypto influencer Tiffany Fong carved hers next to Jackie Chan with the help of AI."
"A new AI model launched days before Thanksgiving While leading AI generators used the holiday to showcase new updates - OpenAI's Sora shared videos of an animated turkey while Topaz Labs restored 1940s Macy's Day Parade footage - one AI model dominated the discourse this week. A week before Thanksgiving, Google Gemini launched Nano Banana Pro, an updated version of its AI image generator. Comparing a similar image created by the older version of Nano Banana, users flagged the hyper-realism of the new model."
AI-generated images of holiday gatherings have become common, with prominent figures posting digitally altered Thanksgiving photos featuring celebrities and tech leaders. Some images replace original elements with seasonal items or place public figures together in lifelike renderings. A recently released image model, Nano Banana Pro from Google Gemini, has produced notably hyper-realistic results compared with its predecessor. Other AI tools showcased holiday-themed outputs, including animated turkeys and restored parade footage. The increasing realism of generated photos raises the need for awareness and practical tips to help people identify AI-manipulated images during family gatherings.
