Prompt: In an Impressionist style, the image features a noir-inspired detective’s office with a lone AI robot dressed as a pirate from the golden age. It’s surrounded by holographic screens showing various deepfake images, indicating ongoing investigation. One hand is adjusting a futuristic eyepiece it’s using to examine a deepfake image while the other holds a vintage pipe. The room’s ambiance is dark with only the computer glow casting light, a nod to the title’s “Deep Dark World”.
