You’re right. Later in the video, this shot with the same fake film effect appears and that’s indubitably AI (look at bottom right):

The video narration implied this is footage from a rare or unfinished film, though.

Which spoiler works in Thunder?

Are you implying it’s from a stock footage site that used AI? They would definitely get their previews indexed on search engines. Alternatively, it’s been generated on request, which would make it impossible to find.

I put them in a spoiler. Compliant viewers should hide them by default.

The film artifacts are quite unusual (the vertical lines span exactly one frame, one of the lighter spots stays on pretty much the same spot between frames 1 and 2) but I noticed no other red flags. In fact, the hair is very convincing. The eyes seem to reflect different things but her right one is somewhat in the shade and the light source reflection could be different because it’s close to her face.

I wouldn’t say “shit” but rather niche. Most people who would love a Reddit-like place have Reddit and don’t hate it enough to switch, especially since we don’t have extensive hobby communities with long history.

Now you can have fun while playing Modern Warfare 2
