    To me it looks very strongly like what they used is one of the models that is specifically for iterpolating frames to splice takes together, and (maybe) the one of the ones that “cleans up” speech.

    What this reminds me of though is when kamala did an interview with 60 minutes, and for whatever reason a ton of conservatives kept shitting on them for not releasing an unedited version… as if she said something scandalous or extremist in the cut out portions. This strikes me the same way because if you actually consider what you’d do with full proof this was mostly or fully AI generated, there’s not much?

    • it would reveal he’s too sick to be in office
      • I don’t think this would be the tipping point for anybody. You’re either already aware / care or in denial / don’t care
    • it shows trump doesn’t actually care
      • I don’t think he ever really did with any of the previous times. the trump statement with or without AI would look exactly the same in this regard
    • it shows they’re willing to sacrifice [issue with AI] just for a press statement
      • they’ll say this themselves happily

      The biggest concern I have is that the words of this particular guy, they have incredible bearing on the weight of the world.

      If they are willing to use an AI to touch him up and make him seem more “together”, are they willing to generate an video from a still frame and a transcript? If they’re willing to do that when does fully generating the president become acceptable.

      It’s a slippery slope where not one step is acceptable. The implications are too much. These people have access to the best of the best of the best models and companies that owns them. They can afford to spend millions fine tuning a model to produce videos of just one guy.

      Consider the counter position: What does it mean if Trump didn’t say these words?
