To me what stood out was how clean the audio was for a recording you'd expect to be covert. Yeah you've got the background noise slapped in, but the AI voice is nearly crystal with no change of volume, and there's no /phone mic bumping against someone's hand + pocket/ noises synonymous with the sort of recording you'd hear this in. I cannot find this for the life of me but I remember in Corbyn's tenure during the whole "stupid woman" spat there was a video circling around Twitter + WhatsApp with cut up audio of Corbyn saying those two words slapped on top. It was simple, but to a lot of average folk who aren't experienced with audio editing and wouldn't even consider how fake it was, it might as well have been real. It's interesting how the game of detective has changed with the advent of AI audio & image generation, but bullshit travels faster than the truth, and those who could nip it in the bud are nowhere near close to the first people who share it
