I’m sorry, but AI? The above clip may not have been the AI generated clip they were referencing, but I know for sure that it IS a recording of the 2013 game “Grand Theft Auto 5”. The skyline is not Abu Dubai, it’s the fictional recreation of L.A. dubbed “Los Santos”. I know the internet it a muddy place, but how much worse does it have to get before we see either reform, or some sort of media literacy course for the folks who, unfortunately and understandably, believe things like this.
The fact that the clip above was taken from a game that is now 15 years old, and can still pass for reality, speaks to the vulnerability of the public to misinformation.
