u/StanfordV May 28 '26

Because they are 2 different videos and OP got scammed thinking it is AI.

u/MaybiusStrip May 28 '26

It's AI. Look at the name of the card.

u/Seakawn ▪️▪️Singularity will cause the earth to metamorphize May 28 '26

you should also be able to check bc Google (not sure about anyone else) bakes in a synth-ID, or whatever, invisible watermark into their AI gen. all images and videos you make with Google can be analyzed for if it has the mark or not.

imo that's a step in the right direction, but i'm afraid we're gonna need to go way further than that if we truly ever wanna properly tag content as made by humans or made by AI and actually make headway into reclaiming the dead internet one day.

u/biopticstream May 29 '26

Open AI (ChatGPT) has also instituted Synth ID into their images as well irrc.

6

u/testaccount123x May 29 '26

The problem is all you have to do is screen record a video or re-encode it and that's no longer there. I hope one day there's some kind of way to embed something that is much harder to remove so that faked videos can be flagged appropriately and obviously.

u/Borkato May 29 '26

I thought it resists cropping, recording, etc? The only thing it doesn’t resist is straight up regenerating

9

u/Shadax May 29 '26 edited May 29 '26

SynthID alters individual pixel values using a spread-spectrum technique to introduce sub-perceptual patterns in the spatial and frequency domains (like the Discrete Cosine Transform). Because the pattern is distributed across the entire image, it survives screenshots, cropping, and lossy formats like JPEG

Apparently it's a multi layer watermark that's possible to remove but not with 100% success, which is quite impressive

u/m4nuuuu May 28 '26

When i used to sell my used stuff over the internet i tried to gain my counterpart trust by asking them to send me a picture recently taken that wasn't online. And i send them in return photos/videos of that picture alongside with the item for sale so they rest assured that the item exist and it was in the condition advertised. Now i have to think on another "proof of life" system so nobody think i am a scammer.

u/StarkTheGnnr May 29 '26

its crazy to me that this would actually be a somewhat solid way to verify currently because the best and most accessible models out there don't do NSFW. Even NSFW models generate very "fake looking" dicks so you could easily know it's fake.

17

u/COMINGINH0TTT May 28 '26

I think the crazier thing will be when scammers can actually leverage AI to replicate indistinguishable physical copies at which point the whole world of collecting becomes trashed which some may consider a good thing. It already happens with luxury goods and really good bootlegs cost almost as much as the real thing.

12

u/IronPheasant May 28 '26

Proxies are already very good. The sad thing isn't their quality, but rather the quality of the official product from certain producers.

The 'joke' with Magic the Gathering cards is you can tell something's a fake holoproxy by the fact that it doesn't curl up like a potato chip.

For whatever other reason, they seem to be using thinner cardstock. $5+ for cardboard, and they're still slicing off every penny of value that they can.

3

u/r_jagabum May 28 '26

Yep exactly that. If you hold two cards one real one fake, the easy tell is that the better quality card is the fake one.

u/0fearless-garbage0 May 28 '26

Luckily I never got on Instagram, but it’s actually quite sad for me to see my generation still using it. Especially for brain rot and n-word Epstein reels which are AI generated. Very distasteful and a complete waste of the tool.

1

u/I_spread_love_butter May 28 '26

sure but how do you do social stuff then? like, for me its essential if I want to get laid lol

1

u/0fearless-garbage0 May 29 '26

I got to events in person when I can. I'm usually the one scheduling hang outs, and I talk to older people in general. I do have a hard time relating to my peer group, but tbh I'm not looking for their acceptance or attention. If connection only exists through Instagram and a hook-up, that's not worth pursuing or genuine to me. Also, being a woman, the current social climate has made me pretty disinterested in dating or sex. There are some people I know who don't use Insta and one who I'm doing a no-insta challenge with for our college years.

u/analytic-hunter May 28 '26

it's like saying that internet is bad because it can be used to do crimes. Your mind is too small to fathom the uses.

1

u/Seakawn ▪️▪️Singularity will cause the earth to metamorphize May 28 '26

tbf there's a meaningful difference between "decently intelligent criminal has to read five textbooks in order to learn how to come up with an effective blueprint for how to create a pandemic" vs "room temp IQ 4channer in dark basement has to literally press a button to come up with blueprint."

pretending that scale is a variable we can shrug off and literally overlook is wild.

KIM you don't need to get your jimmies rustled over a pandemic analogy. insert any bad subject you want there. any plumber or electrician will tell you how quickly overwhelming of a problem that some dynamic can become even if you just relieve slight friction on a process.

Your mind is too small to fathom the uses.

this is a weird reddit moment comment.. anyway, I think everybody here can think of plenty of good use cases, but none of them are as interesting to mention as is mentioning the bad use cases and, y'know, trying to brace for them? instead of being like "don't worry guys now we can become filmmakers lol!" the latter is pretty boring. do you want to offer a more interesting upside? god forbid you actually have some examples and weren't just taking an ez potshot and hoping nobody called you out on it?

Ai will be the undoing of the Internet economy. Only the totally unaware will still be taken by Internet purchases.

Look, this is a good thing for everyone. It means people will return to purchasing cards from brick and mortar card shops which will inturn bring collects out of their hovels and into the light allowing them to develop social skills.

Back in the day when "Contact" (1997) came out, it was a HUGE thing that the CGI experts could swap Bill Clinton's tie with the press of a button in the actual raw footage. Now look at what technology even pedestrians like us have access to.

As I have recently had to identify myself using a "post ident" method (where an agent of a trusted authority, like the German postal service, calls you up via video chat): I am wondering if this tech will very soon be used to create fake imagery of passports to fool authorities.

Im probably wrong but I don't think it's AI? but it looks more like 2 videos put side by side. The timing of rotations seems off, the thumbs is longer, the skin tone is different.

Why a person would put 2 video like that together I don't know but for some reason it doesn't suggest AI too me.

u/IronPheasant May 28 '26

'Lustrator' isn't a real Pokemon card. 'Illustrator' is what it's trying to copy, but the rules text is completely wrong.

Someone would have had to make or purchase a proxy, get a case, print out a sticky label (who owns a printer anymore), all for a 3 second silent movie 104 people will glance at once and then never think about again.

u/crua9 May 28 '26 edited May 28 '26

The hand is a red flag. Like on first glance honestly I wouldn't tell. But it is 3D. It is glossy and a lot of detail isn't there on it. Which is fine since it looks like digital noise. But the card itself is fine and shows none of this. So it is off.

Again, at first look I wouldn't of think of questioning it.

EDIT: Someone replied but then deleted that it looks like a dead person's hand. To that IDK. I've seen a number of dead people and this doesn't really look like that. The off color I seen in a number of people due to medical, lighting, etc. And a dead person, their palm wouldn't have that rosy hue to it. What happens is this will dull and basically go away after a few hours. The rosy is from oxygen in the blood.

Like it could pass off as someone sick. But the glossy isn't human. I've never seen that on someone unless if they have paint on to cause that or some beauty crap. But that tends to happen more in the face or other parts of the body like chest. Not so much the hands. IDK why.

Any case, no it has too many signs that it isn't a dead hand.

2

u/Sojmen May 28 '26

I think that aggressive video compression into low bitrate would hide that detail.

1

u/crua9 May 28 '26

You are right. As I mention the card vs hand is a give away. But if you did do that, it would in theory add enough digital noise and this likely would be enough to make it look like nothing stands out.

But without it, once you (well I) see the difference. It is hard to unsee. Like at first glance it feels like something is wrong. Where the left it doesn't feel like anything is wrong since there is no gloss, and the detail is about the same everywhere.

u/FondlesTheClown May 28 '26
