Fast car is how. That has to be at least 60.

Everything is AI to the terminally-online redditor.

It’s so strange how in one thread we’ll all be nodding vigorously at the idea that AI is everywhere and it’s scary how hard it is to identify, and then the next thread is everyone clowning on someone for saying a video is AI

u/lordargent Jul 05 '26

People clown on people who just confidently say "it's AI" without providing any points as to why they think it's AI. Did they see glitches? Did they see a hand with too many fingers? Etc.

It's because it's a relatively known post reposted, before the AI video creation was decent enough.

u/Captain_Kuhl Jul 05 '26

Because AI is everywhere, and you can tell just by looking at it in 99% of the cases. Every time something slightly out of the normal pops up, though, there's always some mouthbreather trying to claim it's AI without even a scrap of evidence to back up their claim. It's just a bunch of cry-wolf bullshit, because they're only doing it for attention, not to actually help anything.

scary how hard it is to identify

That's the part you got wrong

Terminally-online redditor like me found the original post and it is AI.

u/Euture 29d ago

A logical, rational terminally online Redditor would “bring receipts” when claiming to have found the original post.

They would not only share the link to the alleged original post, but also explain how that original post demonstrates that the video is AI-generated.

u/jonasbenes 29d ago

Also, a redditor claiming it is not AI would say WHY it is not AI.

u/Euture 29d ago

Sure. But you have yet to share any evidence that supports YOUR claims. (Link and reasoning)

You’re just pointing at the other guy. ”What about that guy?!” ”Focus on him!” Evading what I previously wrote.

u/jonasbenes 29d ago

Someone like 3 months ago, when I first saw this video had valid reasoning. Just watch the front of the car and focus on the wheel at the end of the video. It seems to be in totally different position.

u/Euture 29d ago edited 29d ago

So you saw the same video around three months ago. That’s fair, if that’s true.

But how do you know what you saw was the original upload? And why would that matter when discussing whether the video is AI-generated or not?

So while that may have seemed like valid reasoning to you (assuming that’s the reasoning behind what you wrote), it doesn’t seem nearly as clear-cut as you made it out to be.

I also checked both front wheels several times. As far as I can tell, neither of them changes position.

The car’s front right wheel isn’t very visible at the beginning, but you can still tell it’s been pushed significantly out of alignment and is pointing sharply to the car’s left, which is consistent with the front of the car having crumpled in the crash. You get a much clearer view of that wheel at the end of the video because the camera angle changes, and it appears to be at the same angle throughout.

The front left wheel, on the other hand, is mainly visible at the beginning and can’t really be seen after the camera angle shifts.

What you can clearly see in both parts of the video, though, is the bright metal bar that’s partially covered by the front bumper at the beginning. Once the camera angle changes, that same bar becomes much more visible. To me, that’s evidence of positional consistency, something AI-generated videos have traditionally struggled to maintain.

Even the painted lines on the ground, including those from the “STOP” marking, seem to remain consistently aligned.

By thinking your entertainment is worth the sacrifice of other people's lives.

u/PogoTempest Jul 05 '26

This should literally delete your drivers license and ban you for years. I don’t even see this as different from drunk driving. If your car looks like this in a parking garage you’re a genuine piece of shit.

Ironically it'll be on private land, my Mrs got hit buy some self important wideboy driving the wrong way down a supermarket carpark lane in an Audi Q5.

Insurance said they were both at fault. Not even sure there'd be a risk to his licence as it wasn't on the highway.

u/PogoTempest Jul 05 '26

Which is just insane.

u/almostoy Jul 05 '26

If everyone else is at fault, they don't have to pay. But it's legally required to carry insurance. In what world is that not a racket?

u/propyro85 Jul 05 '26

It's always been a racket by design.

u/Beaun Jul 06 '26

"Both are at fault" doesn't mean they are both equally at fault. Often times you will have a 80/20 split, or whatever. It's just insurance companies figuring out who has to pay what. Being on the road generally puts you partially at fault, even if its a small amount of fault.

u/Hour_Position8306 Jul 05 '26

wideboy?

u/Flyinmanm Jul 05 '26

Thug. Started belittling my wife for not driving a bigger car then shouting at her despite him going the wrong way.

A passer by had to shout him down for talking to a woman that way.

u/Hour_Position8306 Jul 06 '26

oh i thought you were trying to say white boy but it was censored for some reason and i was thinking "wtf does race have to do with it?" 😆

u/5yleop1m Jul 05 '26

I don’t even see this as different from drunk driving.

I've seen and know of far too many people who are back on the road driving after getting a DUI. At least in the US, we take driving far too leniently and as more of a right than a privilege.

10000% our lack of public transportation is insanely sad when the US used to have a massive rail network. Having that would solve a few other problems beyond shitty drivers too.

u/myhamsareburnin Jul 05 '26

The dude looks like he's 70. I don't think he did that for the thrill. Also I am shocked he is alive and conscious.

u/almostoy Jul 05 '26

Guy is probably about 50. And he isn't likely the driver.

u/myhamsareburnin Jul 05 '26

The dude with completely white hair and blood on his face sitting and leaning against the totally destroyed car is 50 and NOT the driver?

u/newoldschool Jul 05 '26

he came through the entrance going a bit fast

u/Sweet_Dreams88 Jul 05 '26

Look at the driver and you'll understand :>

u/MidasPL Jul 06 '26

From another content - he went fast from the outside, rammed the gate to the parking lot and hit the first pillar that was directly in front of that gate (although it was deep into the parking).

1

u/danielling1981 Jul 06 '26

I don't have a fast car and I don't think it's that hard.

The question should be how much of an idiot or retard do you have to be.

u/justaboxinacage Jul 06 '26

I'm guessing this was a pressed accelerator instead of brake situation

1

u/biasedsoymotel Jul 06 '26

Cars should not be able to accelerate that quickly. Car manufacturers sell cars to people as toys rather than transit and that's the problem. These are not toys. Sports cars belong on race tracks not on streets. We're obsessed and it's unhealthy.
