I think it’s an orchid.

    This kind of posts should helpfully specify the species, not just “this flower”, otherwise many of us will assume it’s AI generated.

    Ideally a Wikipedia link would satisfy any skepticism, but just the name is good enough for googling.

      I’m not sure how I’m supposed to identify the species and all that stuff you want. I saw a flower and took a picture then did a 2x optical zoom with my Samsung. The first pic is below. And shouldn’t the standard be the other way around in that AI should be labeled, and not assumed?

        AI is, unfortunately, becoming better each month, and most people using it have an interest on passing it as human.

        Tagging is good, but humans can’t be passive. Googling “bee orchid”, or using Plant.net, could be enough to find the species, or a close relative.

        But this is just my opinion, I don’t make the rules here, but I think it’s worth to make a small effort to fight disinformation in any form.
