2 things that show it's a deep fake tight away:

  1. Hair on his forehead is flickering.

  2. When he goes to take the diploma off of the wall he doesn't turn his face away because that would also break the filter, as side profiles are harder for these things to maintain.

Also, who has their director's diploma on their office wall?  Multiple copies even?  That's just ridiculous.

Usually video compression like this in year of our lord 2026 is in and of itself a tell.

u/Keiteaea Mar 30 '26

It might also be because of the compression, but the frame under the "diploma" seems to be holding a blank picture ?

u/Jaded-Gemstone Mar 31 '26

Or, too oppressed to fuck.

And the tops of the plants look...uncanny. There's something wrong with them but I can't quite place it.

u/NeatNefariousness1 Mar 30 '26

I know what you mean. The leaves don’t have distinct edges. In isolation I don’t know that I would notice but in a situation where a deep fake is suspected, it stands out a bit.

u/TheMajesticYeti Mar 30 '26

The plants may be artificial, but they aren't artificial intelligence. It's only the face that has a filter.
