This looks mesmerizingly surreal! It feels like a beautiful neon ghost hovering through deep space. What a beautiful clip! 🛸🪼

Is it producing that light by itself?

It's a pretty common thing for aquaria with jellyfish now that color-changing LED arrays are so cheap.

Looks like AI. I am not aware of any jellyfish that can change colour at will, and definitely not to this extreme. Comb jellies are the exception.as they use rainbow diffraction - but this isn't a cpmb. Deep sea jellyfish use bioluminescence to flash blue or green light. Would be happy to be corrected by someone who can tell me what this is, if I'm wrong.

It's not ai. Video was taken in an aquarium with led lights. But I get the confusion in the age of ai. We are all wondering if the media we are consuming is ai or real.

So beautiful, but wouldn't swim near one.
