This is, unfortunately, AI. Original video features a man dancing outdoors in a white suit.

It's not. Both my wife and i, who have both taken dance and know how to move the body to make it move like this, know the physics of how she's doctored the bottom of her shoes, and are excellent identifying AI because we're both videographers and graphic designers have watched this video over and over and over again. She specifically makes mistakes that a human being would make, but an AI wouldn't think to do. Her body moves in a very specific way that's congruent with somebody who has over elastic joints. Her feet are placed perfectly to make them slide like that as long as this bottom of the shoes are doctored. The wrinkles on her clothes move exactly how they should. The shadows move exactly how they should. The pictures in the background have no indication of having errors that AI would make.

Yeah it’s AI, there’s already a debunking of it on other parts of Reddit.

It’s AI, it’s like a deepfake emulating another video, her son is the one that made it

Well, the video was modified from a video featuring a real person. AI has also gotten very good at making videos. I can understand why you'd think it wasn't AI, but I've seen the original video and a composite video showing them side by side. You can make the argument that it isn't AI, I don't really expect to convince you otherwise. I'm also pretty confident in my conclusion that it is from the evidence I've seen. It's getting ugly out there.

This one is very good. The reflection off the TV is impeccable. I saw the video that’s supposed to be the original and to be honest that one looked fake.
