A friend sent around a video of "HK NewYear 2026" which was clearly an AI simulation--animation--

not a video recording of a real event.

How I caught on: The audience in the foreground was too uniform--not real. For instance, one was "people" all pointing in one direction.

Another had a paper cutout sihouette of "people."

SILHOUETTE Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster silhouette suggests a shape especially of a head or figure with all detail blacked out in shadow leaving only the outline clearly defined.

Also it went on too long and was too complex to be real.

It's no different from the still AI images anyone can generate say on Substack--to illustrate an article.

Trump uses AI on portraits of himself and to lampoon his enemies (Obamas)

They are Fiction--not reality. These just move.

Don'tbe fooled.
