Not to take away from the seriousness of the subject, but I suspect this is an AI-generated image. You can tell by the mangled hands.
I saw that, too. But this image is posted all over the place, so I don't know if that adds or subtracts to the validity.
I did notice that the girls had other physical attributes that seemed very real, thus lending more credence to it being a real, authentic photo - or mostly real.
Their faces are sunburned, they are covered in dust, under eye is red-rimmed, all have dry, parched, and wind-blown hair.
There is excellent detail on their clothing, shoes and socks. All different, but similar styling.
Dresses are dirty, one is torn showing the pattern of the under dress through the hole, and they have matching red rough spots on their arms and hands.
Regarding the mangled hands, take a look at this to see what happens to your hands when you shuck oysters with a sharp, curved knife:

If you've ever shucked oysters, or clams, that's what your hands would look like.
I suppose if it was proven that the picture is older than the debut of AI, then we could safely say it's real and accurate.
Have you seen many images done by AI? All of those details and more are covered. It's freaking amazing, frankly. The one area I have seen where it is still quite weak is with hands. Sometimes it puts 6 fingers, or mangles them like they are in this picture. The two girls on the right, for instance. Look at the hand between them. It looks like two parts of hands, and both would go with the girl on the far right.
My comments are not to take anything away from the horror of children being used in such a manner. Only to emphasize the need for truth and accuracy.
I agree. Their hands are strangely mangled. But the rest looks so authentic.
I want to believe it is real! The advent of A.I. is really opening a Pandora's box.
I don't know if it's AI generated or not, but there are many similar pictures of children working in factories and coal mines. Children.
Oh, I know. It's horrifying.
They're not actually AI generated , I found the photographer by reverse image search, his name is Lewis Hine and he took a series of photos of child labor
Did you find this exact photo amongst his collection? I don't doubt for a second that he took many photos of the horrors of child labor. But this particular picture looks suspect due to the hands being exactly how AI mangles hands.
I'm guessing you have never shucked an oyster?
Nope. I can honestly say I have never shucked an oyster. Do you have a lot of shucking experience? I'm not even sure what shucking is, except I would surmise it means "opening." I will go look it up in a dictionary.
yes it's opening the shell and dig out the oyster. Those shells are very much SHUT and do not want to be pried open, hence the knife. And it takes strength to pry them open, again hence the cuts on the hands! Kids obviously don't have the strength of an adult and that's why I got major beat up shucking them oyster. AND the shell also is very sharp and cuts the hands as well. It's NOT fun but the oyster is delicious!
Isn't it tiny though? Like, hardly worth all that work?
