Google’s new AI video tool floods internet with real-looking clips | Veo 3 generates clips that most users online can’t seem to distinguish from those made by human filmmakers and actors.

  1. Okay, then stop telling me it can make clips and someone make an actual narrative that I am not instantly knocked out of when someone’s hand phases through someone else’s ass and the scene changes from a 1200 sq ft house on the outside to an abandoned duplex on the inside.

    Ohhh wow you made a lava lamp person running through the forest weeee wow. Why? How? Make some fucking art already.

  2. Well I’m still happy AI generated content still has that obvious wierdly glossy look to everything it does. 

    Granted, it’s super easy to remove.

    People in the 1900’s: AI will do all the hard work in the future so I can focus on art and music.
    People in 2025: Stupid artists, why don’t they get a real job in a factory, we created an AI to generate your fav furry porn.

    Again what’s the point of this if not to enshitfy the internet and make dead internet theories a reality.

    This kind of technology is a mutually assured self destruction of content on the internet. It guarantees that everything we see or read on the internet will become questionable. WTF is the point of this beyond making a short term buck?

  5. Dead Internet theory speedrun.
    Now it’s not just because of bots, but we’re adding ai slop.

    As usual, there’s a bit of a “monkeys and typewriters” aspect to this – the best of the best is being shared and going viral.

    Not that it’s not technically impressive, but let’s not pretend that all of the output looks as good as the examples. A skilled creative using the model is vastly different from what the average person is going to be able to manage.

    I’m currently pinning my hopes on AI to make a book faithful Wheel of Time TV series. I don’t think this is as far off as people think.

  8. TikTok has gone full circle and has people pretending they are Veo 3 clips and it honestly takes a few watches to figure out it’s actually real. Just adding a tiny stutter to one word makes the whole thing “feel” AI even though it’s real.

    This is so concerning. Imagine four to five years from now when AI can start to fool experts. Will we be able to distinguish AI from reality? I’m already imagining political propaganda videos made entirely from AI, and worse.

    I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe… Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion… I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments were made by AI.

    Is that what’s being used in the deepfake Pope Leo XIV interviews that are going around social media? I’ll admit those almost fooled me

    Only a matter of time until a browser comes around with a built in AI detector that automatically tells the user if a video is likely AI or a deep fake or not.

  13. For kicks someone will deepfake Putin and use it to browbeat a junior officer into launching nukes.

  14. What I’m hearing is that most people don’t spend enough time critically thinking about what they watch and have failed to aquire a feel for how actual people speak and act.

  15. Whelp, now video evidence is going to be questionable, so get ready for bad criminals to get away with a lot more shit

  16. Here’s a question: is AI that good or is modern videography that bad?

    So many films produced in the last 20 years use so much CGI that almost anyone born after 2000 is likely to think all films before 2000 were fake, if you get my meaning. I’ve exaggerated, obviously, but my point is that AI might only be as good as modern cinematography and only indistinguishable from reality for observers who rarely stray far from a screen.
