But… of course there is? A record of a real thing is different from a statistical simulation of it.

I think you missed the "a" vs " the", you can encode different sources that would have different grains, or the same source would have different grain at different times.

But also a simulation called compression of a real thing is different from that real thing, so that purity test had already been failed

  • I just feed AI the IMDB summary and let it re-create the movie for me. Just as “pure” as high-bitrate h.265, after all.

    • You've chosen your argumentative perch very well, it's indeed right down there with the AI slop where you can't see any difference in reality
