AI knows exactly where this photo was taken.
A tool called GeoSpy can identify the location of almost any photo from a single image. It reads architectural details, shadow angles, vegetation species, signage fonts, street materials, things you'd never consciously notice. Upload a random photo from your camera roll and it pinpoints the city block within seconds.
It was built for open-source intelligence research, but now it's public. That photo you posted last week?
