this is aaaaaaaAI. The mouse drops at an angle and then distorts a bit. also who the fuck has an IR camera pointing at their face while they're asleep?

we're at the point where we believe computer generated videos are real. I'm not a fan I gotta say.

    I mean if I started waking up with dead mice on my face, I might set one up to see wtf is going on at night.

    The mouse roll off the bottom of the cat's lip, into a cropped video. Also, this.

    No clue as to trust. But my eyes and brain tell me the video is real, I score well on "AI vs. real" tests, and this site confirmed my belief. :) How funny is that last phrase? 😆

    Just not getting the AI vibe here. Video background has too many random, and sensible, details. Details like the fur on the cat's underbelly, guy's nose hair, the imperfect IR reflection from the cat's tapetum lucidum looks real, the deep-sleep face twitch, nothing too perfect, no uncanny valley.

    Well, AI or not.. I can vouch for cats bringing dead things into their owners beds.

    Why I twigged on it, was that my dads cat, Gandalf the Gray, used to bring him dead mice and leave them by his head when he was sleeping - or if it happened during the day, she'd just leave birds on his pillow.

    He would always thank her, give her scritches, then when she wasn't looking, flush the carcasses..

    It was love.
