This reminds me of how Samsung got caught using AI to fake high quality pictures of the moon. Someone proved it by blurring an image of the moon, then taking a picture of the blurred image, and it came out with tons of detail.

I had a Pixel 6A and 7A in the last couple of years, mostly as an experiment. The computational photography side of it was a complete mess, mutilating many photos from crazy levels of over-sharpening through to turning things into weird oil paintings. Absolutely hated both of them. I do have photos of myself with a North Face hat taken on them though and they came out fine!
Crawled back to an iPhone and paid through the nose in the end.

It's an interesting observation, but I couldn't replicate this by taking a photo of a Google Images search for "north face logo", or with a photo of the reddit user's photo. Pixel 7, stock Camera app. The photo turns out as expected.

It will be a crazy world when a company has to pay a camera manufacturer if they want their logo to be legible in any photos taken...
Surely there's a Black Mirror episode...

Photos that have undergone such processing should not be admissable as evidence in court.
...and from an even more dystopian angle, although this may be a "bug", it shows just how easy it is for them to selectively change how things appear if they wanted to.

Found on Reddit (posted by u/NeillDrake) and thought HN would find it interesting.
