Can anyone identify this plane? What kind and who made it?

Hey Rick, looks like an AI plane to me, there's quite a few things that standout that make it look fake, the hands holding it look fake, the image is too smooth which is an AI hallmark, that wedge is waaay too thick and what's with the funky pin at the bottom of the wedge that appear to be stopping the wedge from sitting lower. Then the wedge at the bottom view seems to split off, that's weird. It's AI all the way. Oh yes, and that step down front tote, what's up with that?

I don't know what the step is for. I never thought of it as AI. When I do a search using Google camera it says it's HNT Gordon & Co.

See if you can find that plane by HNT Gordon and compare the images

That knob is supposed to be a Horn...

"Wedge" is an after market Chipbreaker...

IF it is a real plane..it is a Franken plane

that's a heck of a thick chip breaker, looks more like a Hock iron that AI stuck in there.

Even AI knows it's AI 😂

I just read a headline last week about grade inflation due to AI writing kids' papers for them, etc. My first thought was "when will the teachers start using AI to spot the AI authored papers?" I bet its already happening!

It's been happening for awhile, since my oldest girl was in college a few years back. All their papers went through AI screening to ensure plagiarism was not happening.
