Following up on my forst video series were I used generative AI to simulate a fictional Emu uprising in Australia, I have created new videos to demonstrate the current capabilities of generative AI and why you shouldnt believe everything that you watch online, especially digital news posted on social media..

While taking a comedic look at issues regarding deepfakes and generative AI, these short videos raise awareness of how easy it is to create fake digital news and post it on the internet.

It should be noted, that a true journalist acquires news from fact checking and investigation, not from scrolling social media. Leave social media for funny pictures, MEMES and cat videos and acquire your news from the newspaper.
