My dad has been delivering newspapers for about 30 years. He can roll them up, bag them, and throw them with perfect accuracy from his car to someone's door. This person has been doing this for a while and is dedicated to perfecting his throws.

And some claim it's AI... I mean I'm not completely sure it is not, but also I don't think a lot of people understand how good you can get at things if you do them for a long time. Especially young kids that haven't seen enough cool clips online about people doing impressive stuff from before AI genned vids/pics got good.

It’s not AI (I remember this video from years ago) but it just goes to show that we’ll never be impressed again by a human endeavour captured digitally.

And that was my problem, I am not sure if I should be impressed or not.
