Not everything odd is AI, and I don’t believe this image is.
It’s consistent with the era of the monitors, has controls in believable locations on them, has a variety of angles that look right (including the supports underneath the base), and searching tineye with this image returns results with the same photo going back to at least 2015.

You are right, it’s probably just edited (by humans rather than current gen AI).
Eg sussy artefacty bits from the pic above:
(See how monitors arent complete & the geometry is wrong at the top & bottom?)
Or this obvious copypasta (with one edit in the mid):
The reflexions of light in the edited monitors is wrong too (that’s the first thing I noticed that made me look closer).
Og pic without the fuckery:
