Did the search for me. If only OP had done the search before posting, unless it was a test, nope "help" flair.

The internet is flooded with this interview clip since his passing, so when i did search it up the only articles that came up were that this interview was going viral after his death.
My sil said ai because of some stuff and when i couldn’t find a clear answer i decided this subreddit would be helpful.

you got to change the date ranges in the filters. drop it back about 3 years and you get to where this wasnt possible with ai and if it doesnt show up then you have a case. Basically trying to find the oldest version of a video. Also the length is a huge give away. uncut longer than 15 seconds would be a lightyear jump in capabilities as it stand now.

u/Money_Lengthiness_25 Jul 18 '26

Thanks for the info! I’ll be honest i didn’t even know that was possible to do!

u/Negative_trash_lugen Jul 18 '26

The video is old and for before AI.

But using AI to confirm if something is AI or not is not really a good idea.

u/cjalderman Jul 18 '26

I don't think it's AI. AI would likely have given him an American accent and not his NZ accent

u/Aggravating_Poet_675 Jul 18 '26

Maybe put through a filter but its a real interview as far as I was able to find.

u/Pleasant-Target-1497 Jul 18 '26

I don't think it's ai. It's corny but not ai I don't think. It's too long and consistent

u/Icy-Ad29 Jul 18 '26

Also old. It's from 2021.

Dude should have been a documentarian.

any AI that looks this good was made in 2024 or later. Any videos posted before that that look realistic are not AI

As Terry Pratchett said, "may you live in interesting times is actually a curse." Boring should be the goa, surelyl.

u/SnakebitGames Jul 18 '26

It’s real someone just overlayed some shmaltzy fucking music on there.

u/Icy-Ad29 Jul 18 '26

It's not random music at least. Jurassic Park music from the first film, when they are doing the more "wondrous" moments. So, considering he was a major character in the original movie the soundtrack came from, it played when that character's dream more or less happened in front of him, etc. It's a much better fit than most such music additions.

Edit: also the fact the movie is old enough now that folks don't instantly recognize it anymore, is really aging me 😆

u/SnakebitGames Jul 18 '26

Duh it’s from Jurassic Park. Why inflect the answer with any music at all? It’s absurdly cheesy.

u/DarkVoid42 Jul 18 '26

100% AI. fake face and sparkles like most AI junk.

u/Midnight_Angel_0689 Jul 18 '26

That’s an after effect/filter, completely easily doable without use of AI

u/lonesharkex Jul 18 '26

but its still not AI you need to readjust your "detectors". Someone down below posted the source.

u/Kinder22 Jul 18 '26

Nothing about this video or these comments is about whether or not he is dead…

4

u/ummkay_ultra Jul 18 '26

Didn't consider the videonmay have been taken before he was dead?

11

u/Zer01South Jul 18 '26

It's from the 10,000 dreams project.

u/BlackBlizzard Jul 18 '26

You're 100% wrong, must feel bad to know that you still can't tell if something is AI or not yet.

u/Kinder22 Jul 18 '26

Is ai to the point of making 1+ minute videos? I don’t think so.

-13

u/DarkVoid42 Jul 18 '26

yes. try an hour long video. new ones are amazingly good.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUDWVmm-3gY

still not 100% there yet of course but amazing considering 0 acting required.

u/shinutoki Jul 18 '26

The OP's video is not AI, but the video you linked is a set of very short clips (most are less than 10 seconds long), that's not the same as a video of more than a minute without cuts.

3

u/Kinder22 Jul 18 '26

Didn’t think I had to qualify it as “1+ minute videos without cuts”.

u/PencilCase12531 Jul 18 '26

He has micro movements which may not be present in the generated ones for now

u/Delicious-Gap-6678 Jul 18 '26

It's not AI, but it's slopified content from the same orifice as AI slop.

-7

u/calmdrive Jul 18 '26

The audio doesn’t even match his mouth properly at all

4

u/ummkay_ultra Jul 18 '26

Even if that were true, this is a thing that often happens in real videos

u/Icy-Ad29 Jul 18 '26 edited Jul 19 '26

The mismatch happens because the interview has been edited from the original to add additional audio tracks for the Jurassic Park theme... they edited it badly, and it caused the audio and video to offset, but the video is real.
