Let’s not rule out virtual production techniques as that first scene of him frozen is clearly a set.

#42Whatever the outcome of this specific case, we are clearly at a tipping point in history - it’s now basically impossible to say for certain if a fake video is real, and potentially even more problematic - also impossible to say for sure that a real video is not fake. The whole concept of ‘video evidence’ is going up in smoke.
The punishment for using fake video evidence for accusing someone of a crime must also go up. Way up.
Why? That's already illegal.

#48I used to do paragliding and to me the video looks like low effort green screen more than AI. The colons don't behave like that when flying because you have a tension exactly as much as your weight and it will vibrate and jiggle as it is rare to have perfect laminar flow especially over land(it gets more stable at hight altitudes but not that stable). Also, you are supposed to have 30 to 60 kph wind blowing at you al…
Sort of related, but that video feels like it might be kind of cruel to the donkey. It's hard to believe that it really enjoys flying like that (but then again maybe who knows).
This isn't true. I know donkeys who do this professionally and they rave about their air time.

> also impossible to say for sure that a real video is not fake.
If you recall, when Epstein was arrested and awaiting trial, the media repeated the narrative that "deep fakes" were coming out now and some videos are completely fake.
It was never said in reference to Epstein specifically. But they were two independent stories at the same time. Almost as if it were a preparation for damage control should some compromising material be released.

> The whole concept of ‘video evidence’ is going up in smoke. are you talking legally? not sure why that would be the case. Courts accept documents which can be forged. Doing that would be a crime.
When you submit a document to the court you must "lay a foundation" for it. That is, someone with personal knowledge of the document must testify under penalty of perjury about the contents being accurate and unmodified, etc.
