If the internet loves something, it's a cute animal. But in the age of AI, we can't trust animals videos that can be viewed online.
You may have seen a recent viral video featuring a bunny jumping on a trampoline. That's adorable. And fake. It is fully and completely manufactured via artificial intelligence.
This is the AI video in question. Apparently it was originally posted to Tiktok by @RacheltheCatlovers with caption. “I checked my home security cam.
The video was stacked up 203 million views In Tiktok. The technology-centric site 404Media noted that it was first generated by artificial intelligence. Once the site is discovered, you can clearly see one of the bunnies spontaneously disappearing during the middle of the jump, and the background of the video appears to be very static.

Bunny videos are perhaps the most incredible, but far from the only AI-generated animal videos that go viral. For example, there appears to be a fake video genre of people cleaning whale barnacles.
Or here's all the mashups of animal silly, fake doorbell camera footage. Unfortunately, fake surveillance footage of animals appears to be a new genre of AI slops.
So, if you see incredible footage of animals, don't believe it.
