How do I prevent iOS 18 from automatically zooming in wallpapers on iPhone 15?

When I set a photo as a wallpaper in an album it gets zoomed in if there’s a human in it. Is this some kind of AI crap? Is there any way to turn it off? iOS 18, iPhone 15

Why is the wallpaper blurred on iPhone 11 running iOS 18? Every time i want an image for my wallpaper with a black background in it apple automatically blurs it, i’ve tested this with (apples) solar system wallpaper and a bunch of my own but every time they become blurry to the point where i can barely even see traces of the image.
