18/19 seconds in, look at Trump's pinky finger disappear and become his ring finger.
The whole video has an AI vibe, but that moment seems like clear evidence. I've never seen a codec introduce that kind of artifact, but it's standard for AI. The background outside the window seems to jump at the same time as well.
My best guess is that this was done due to Trump being physically unable to manage a video... But if anyone has a better idea I'm open to hearing it.
It might also be cool if we can discuss whether or not this is something we're willing to tolerate from leaders. To me, it sounds like a monumentally bad idea straight out of low-budget sci fi.

- khedoros1 1y agoThere are a couple of frames where the pinky disappears, the ring finger becomes the new pinky, middle becomes ring, pointer becomes middle, and a new pointer appears from behind the middle finger as he puts his hand down. During that time, the reflection that was the tip of the pinky becomes the reflection from his shirt, and the tie reflection that becomes visible first appears bent to the viewer's left, and shifts rightwards to match with the now-visible tie and shirt in the next frame. It all happens within 5 frames. Pause the video, and period and comma can be used to advance and reverse frame-by-frame.
- mostlysimilar 1y agoSetting the playback speed to 0.25 and watching at the 18-20 second mark sure does look like AI artifacting, but I'm no expert. It's easiest to see in his pinky but the whole hand changes.
