The big idea
AI can now create videos of things that NEVER happened. This is amazing for movies — and means you can't always trust videos online.
Some examples
- Sora and Runway make short videos from a text description.
- Movie makers use AI for backgrounds and crowd scenes.
- Fake news videos can be made with AI tools.
- Always check the source of a video before believing it!
Try it!
Next time you see a wild video online, ask: 'Where did this come from?' If you can't find the original source, be suspicious!
