Upon closer inspection of the video, I noticed some visual inconsistencies. People’s movements looked unnatural and mechanical, and certain parts of the footage were distorted. This is a common metric for AI-generated content.
We then used Hive Moderation to analyze the video and detected that it likely contained AI-generated or deepfake elements. Resemble AI also flagged the video as fake.


Additionally, keyframes were extracted from the video and analyzed using WasItAI and IsItAI. Both tools showed high confidence that the images were generated using artificial intelligence.

Finally, I uploaded the video to Google’s Gemini. This indicated that the footage was created or modified using Google’s AI tools.

Taken together, these findings confirm that the viral video was created using artificial intelligence and is not a depiction of an actual drone show at Jagannath Temple.
