Edit: as pointed out in the comments, this might be AI generated. Judge for yourself.
@abbadon420@sh.itjust.works are you sure this video hasn’t been generated with AI? In that case please tag it as required by rule 9
As @DarkTimez@lemmy.blahaj.zone pointed out, the channel seems to only post generated content
The video looks consistent so it’s hard to tell for sure. It could be that they copied real footage from somewhere else and posted it with the rest.
Timeline:
- The first mention I could find was the AI channel on 7 November: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tyjwfPPyxuo
- Then it was posted on X on 8 November: https://x.com/skithedream_/status/2119550533258387809
- The AI channel posted a short with a similar situation on 9 November: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/eNeKJ8vhm34
- It was posted to 9Gag on 10 November https://9gag.com/gag/aj7YDwx
I also find a similar video posted on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/61594683694701/videos/ocean/1395503672656845/
So far I think it’s AI generated. Keeping this up for a bit longer to see if anyone else can spot a definitive sign it’s fake and as warning of how realistic AI content has gotten.
I’m no expert on image editing in general and even less so with AI image generation, but I’m pretty sure there’s some weirdness where the foreground of the boat interacts with the background of the water.
The railing (which dips in and out of view suggesting the ship is flexing in a way that may or may not be one of those “engineering is actually just absurd” things) seems to be overlapped by the background in a manner that looks plausibly like a compression artefact except for the way it moves:
You can also see that some of the specks in the glass (which are consistent from the video start) appear to get “lost” in the background and/or picked up and carried away by it. Particularly note the one in the top left that “flashes” as it passes a brighter area of the background, but the flash starts several frames before they actually overlap.
There are some other slop-ish but non-definitive aspects like this thingy and its wobbly outline:
But in general this is very convincing.
I should stop nerd sniping myself investigating these things.
Ships totally do flex.
You’re saying they didn’t really jump a bike on the moon. Some people are so lazy.
Perhaps I’m projecting my own lack of ambition
They’re lucky the front didn’t fall off. A wave? At sea? Chance in a million.
Definitely AI generated.
Camera doesn’t make sense. That thing is super stable. Is it bolted to to ceiling, just smack dab over the console and a few feet back from a window? The placement doesn’t make sense for a static mount. If someone was holding it, I would expect a lot more sway and jitter.
Watch the “paperwork” at the bottom of the screen. I could dismiss the coffee cup moving around as a consequence of the ship movement, but paper doesn’t fly up and slap around like that. The general physics of the paper seems to be a simulation of something much stronger.
this is llm generated, real waves do NOT work like that
The coffee mug is a dead giveaway
LLMs shit out words, not images
Multimodal ones definitely have image input and output. Gemini Omni can do text/image/video in and video/text out, though generally video models tend to be specialized.

If that’s generated, the temporal consistency is impressive.
Every little detail on the containers stays intact after a full “wipe” of the window. Even the tiny railing on the front
Yeah such huge waves don’t appear on a weather that calm.
Also they do appear out of nothing sometimes but not that fast.
Also the impact was like nothing.
- source: I watched one or two videos of real waves
I found it weid how high the wave became and conveniently collapsed in front of the boat
Yeah I also noticed the cup on the desk acting strangely. Was wondering it this is slop or something else happening.
That’s pretty much the only thing that makes me doubt the authenticity and I hate it.
the cup falls because the boat appears to be rapidly rocking from the waves which doesn’t seem to be unexpected.
what was odd was the very slight lack of fluid motion of the paper and cup as they moved when everything else seems to flow almost in a slow motion frame of reference.
either way it’s pretty hard to spot it as a fake.
Nah I’ve been watching wave / ship videos since like 15 years and this video is obviously fake. It’s just far too exaggerated.
Im actually surprised the containers stayed on
The front stayed on.
That’s very typical I assure you.
The full video has the
fuck hit the bollardfront fall off
It’s starting to make sense how the front could fall off.
The way the wave just grows from nothing out of the darkness…
Not what I needed to watch 10 times before bed
Also how the cup does a little fall over then rights itself strangely. AI slop can do things.
Jesus
I’m using Voyager and this post opened up in a separate browser window along with its comments. Is it supposed to happen that way?
Same here. Makes sense to me because it is a link to a mastodon post.
Probably not.
Boats go under water, ships float in the sea.
But for a brief moment that was a u-boat.
As others have said: well fuck that!
And people willingly get on ocean-going vessels like this.
No. Just no.
This is a very fitting video today. It’s the anniversary of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
So I think the correct phrase here is, “Oh, fuck that…”
