I've often seen people show off their autogenerated images and report only approximate paraphrases of their actual prompts.
There's one screenshot showing the prompt – but in $CURRENT_YEAR, I view all screenshots with at least a little suspicion, especially when there was a way to highlight the pseuod-watermarked image – OpenAI's native 'Share' – that would've provided stronger proof, direct from OpenAI, of exactly the prompt associated with an image. Hoaxes are everywhere! I've added DALL-E bottom-right color-squares to non-DALL-E images, & seen others do the same, as a subtle joke.
So I generally believe the OP, but don't rule-out the possibility there's been tampering to make some point.
