AI-generated videos so real they are difficult to spot
Real and fake are now hopelessly blurred.

Google's new AI video tool floods internet with real-looking clips
May 23, 2025
Google's newest AI video generator, Veo 3, generates clips that most users online can't seem to distinguish from those made by human filmmakers and actors.
Why it matters: Veo 3 videos shared online are amazing viewers with their realism — and also terrifying them with a sense that real and fake have become hopelessly blurred.
The big picture: Unlike OpenAI's video generator Sora, released more widely last December, Google DeepMind's Veo 3 can include dialogue, soundtracks and sound effects.
The model excels at following complex prompts and translating detailed descriptions into realistic videos.
The AI engine abides by real-world physics, offers accurate lip-syncing, rarely breaks continuity and generates people with lifelike human features, including five fingers per hand.
According to examples shared by Google and from users online, the telltale signs of synthetic content are mostly absent.
Imagine if AI characters became aware they were living in a simulation!
Case in point: In one viral example posted on X [link that follows], filmmaker and molecular biologist Hashem Al-Ghaili shows a series of short films of AI-generated actors railing against their AI creators and prompts. https://x.com/HashemGhaili/status/1925332319604257203
Special effects technology
Video-editing apps and camera tech advances have been changing Hollywood for many decades, but artificially generated films pose a novel challenge to human creators.
In a promo video for Flow, Google's new video tool that includes Veo 3, filmmakers say the AI engine gives them a new sense of freedom with a hint of eerie autonomy.
"It feels like it's almost building upon itself," filmmaker Dave Clark says.
