A post shared on social media purportedly shows the interior of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ home with bottles of oil.

Verdict: False

The photos are generated by artificial intelligence (AI).

Fact Check:

Rapper Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson III is producing a docuseries on Combs with award-winning director Alex Stapleton, CNN reported. The project was announced in May and is set to release on Netflix, according to the outlet.

A post shared on Instagram purportedly shows the interior of Combs’ home during the raid by federal agents. The images shows police surrounded by bottles of oil in a bathroom and a room with shelves dedicated to the bottles.

The caption reads, “Photos of some of the 1,000 oils that were found at #diddy’s house reportedly surface.”

The claim is inaccurate. There is no credible news report that suggests that these photos are authentic depictions of the Combs’ house. The image appears to be AI generated.  However, Hive Moderation suggests that the images are only .3% likely to contain AI.

AI detectors can be tricked by adding grain to an image, which makes it harder for them to accurately identify the content as AI-generated, according to Business Insider.

Walter Scheirer at the Dennis O. Doughty Collegiate Professor of Engineering Department of Computer Science & Engineering at Notre Dame responded to Check Your Fact saying, “These images are the product of a generative AI algorithm. They are obviously exaggerated visual depictions of some elements of the Combs scandal that have been reported (opulent spaces where the alleged sex parties occurred; the liberal use of baby oil). Both images are low quality renderings, and do not look realistic. Further, the photos were not published by an authoritative news outlet, they were directly released to social media.”

Prosecutors did claim that Homeland Security found about 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lube in his home, the New York Post reported. Diddy’s attorney commented that the find suggests that the item was simply bought “in bulk.” (Fact Check: No, Oprah Is Not Being ‘Escorted Around’ By US Marshals Over Alleged Sex Trafficking)

This is not the first time misinformation involving Diddy has circulated online. Check Your Fact recently debunked a claim a post showed an authentic interview between Diddy and former President Donald Trump.
