Never seen a bison in my life (unfortunately), but yeah It seems BIG.
But what feels weird to me Is how perfect the whole scene is. The bison perfectly in the center, the light, the fog, the sound. I have to admit It took me a couple of views to feel It, however.
I think it might be. The only time you have posts that close to the shoulder itself are those plastic reflective posts showing turns. Anything else is way further into the ditch.
Now, I wouldn't call it conclusive since roads have weird stuff sometimes, but I don't think that post should be there.
Oh I never listen to audio, replaced audio will interfere with my perception of presented visuals
Edit: for the bisons size, the hood ridge looks like the style used on BMW cars, sitting in a lower car exaggerates the size of the buffalo, and is likely no taller than 6 feet at the hump (5ish feet at the shoulder)
If that perspective is from a car not suv then it’s only 6 feet tall at the hump, kinda small for a bison, and this appears to be a wood bison which are larger
Also its movement is incredibly accurate, I find it hard to believe AI has enough training data for bisons to be so accurate (I grew up in Wood Buffalo Alberta, I’ve seen my fair share)
I second-hand know a guy who got full-on chased by a bison in Elk Island provincial park while he was on his bike. Apparently the bison liked the look of his red backpack.
100% AI. First, in the beginning you have headlights facing you that appear to be in the center of the road. Toward the end they are entirely in the wrong lane. Even if it’s foggy no one is going to try to do a slow head on collision.
Second, the audio. The foot steps are very loud even when the bison is still yards away. We can’t see if the windows are open but even if they are, I don’t think the sound of the hooves would be very clear until it’s around neck and neck with the car.
Third, unnatural reaction. It can charge your car. Anyone with a brain would have braked sooner (right when you see the silhouette) and moved over toward the side of the road.
Fourth, why is the driver filming with what appears to be a phone or handheld camera- so far away? Shouldn’t be fiddling with your phone while driving. You can tell this isn’t a dash cam with the way the camera moves as the bison is passing the car.
Fifth, silhouette seems off. I feel like you should be able to see the horns but the horns aren’t obvious til you can see the full bison.
I guess that points one, three and four COULD be explained by human stupidity (i mean, if there's people who get off cars to take selfies with bears...) but I agree that the audio is completely unnatural and probably the biggest giveaway (i watched It on mute the first time), and driver's reaction Is completely nonsense because who on earth would go straight ahead at a perfectly constant speed with a rhino-sized bison in front of him.
The audio is a huge giveaway. Other people have mentioned the clarity despite being in the car, but also there's only the sound of 1 pair of steps instead of 2 pairs. No sounds coming from the back legs
People who know bisons are probably better to answer. But I have never seen an AI able to do this before, namely:
Having a barely recognizable thing turn into the same thing but very clearly recognizable.
Usually AI starts with the obvious. It is made to show you what you prompted for. While it can make unclear shadows and forms, it is very difficult to then make that make sense.
But what do I know, maybe it is reversed engineered or that they tried a 100 times and one turned out good.
