    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Found by @[email protected]: it originates here: Dune by Alejandro Jodorowsky - Teaser Trailer (1976)

Source: used as B-roll in the intro of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8AJk2Sns_k&t=3

Here are individual frames but image search (SauceNAO, Google Lens, IQDB, Yandex) has not been helpful.

Frames




























Transcript: Close-up shot of a woman's face with a neutral expression, short brown '80s hair, lipstick, thick sharp eyeliner and glowing aqua irises. Widescreen with a higher-than-usual amount of film artifacts.

Is it a real movie or is it another one of those AI-made “What if X was a 1950s Panavision film” trailers?

[–] jordanlund 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Came here to say this, looks like one of those AI generated Youtube clips.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Are you implying it's from a stock footage site that used AI? They would definitely get their previews indexed on search engines. Alternatively, it's been generated on request, which would make it impossible to find.

[–] jordanlund 7 points 2 weeks ago

I don't know if it's stock, but it definitely looks like the sort of AI used to generate clips like this:

It's from YouTube. I commented with the link yesterday.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The film artifacts are quite unusual (the vertical lines span exactly one frame, one of the lighter spots stays on pretty much the same spot between frames 1 and 2) but I noticed no other red flags. In fact, the hair is very convincing. The eyes seem to reflect different things but her right one is somewhat in the shade and the light source reflection could be different because it's close to her face.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

There is hair on the left that starts and ends nowhere, if you look closely it is very probably AI

[–] CrayonRosary 2 points 2 weeks ago

Definitely the latter: https://lemmy.world/comment/14605877

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

This is AI

[–] bramkaandorp 8 points 2 weeks ago

The transcript even reads like a prompt.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

You're right. Later in the video, this shot with the same fake film effect appears and that's indubitably AI (look at bottom right):

The video narration implied this is footage from a rare or unfinished film, though.

[–] Zahille7 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

God I fucking hate the world now. We actually can't tell what's AI and what's real, the world keeps slipping deeper and deeper into fascism, and everyone keeps heating up the planet.

We need a universal reset.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

We actually can’t tell what’s AI and what’s real

You can if you pay attention. Multiple people called this out as AI.

[–] CrayonRosary 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Probably "1950s Panavision Dune Trailer AI". Just guessing.

Called it.

Well, the title was close enough. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5rqGBeqX08

Please only post one image.

I put them in a spoiler. Compliant viewers should hide them by default.

[–] Blue_Morpho 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What's a compliant viewer? I use Thunder and it hides spoilers but not this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Which spoiler works in Thunder?

Lemmy style spoilers work in Thunder. I don't know what the other person was saying, as I use Thunder, and your post body spoiler worked fine.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Funnily, Connect sure hides those spoilers... But it does so by blanking them out, so they take up the same amount of space... Or they would, but embeds are also rendered as (uninteractible) plaintext in spoilers.

Not complaining about your post, it's Connect that's being different, but it does make the usage of spoilers useless for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

My only guesses are The Stepford Wives (1975) or a completely made up image hallucinated by AI.
