instead they just say “thats normal” or “oh theres nothing wrong with you”. Because in their mind “it wont kill you and i cant fix it” means its not worth mentioning.

she said that fibro was one of the worst things to be diagnosed with because it gives you horrible pain every day of your life and there's literally nothing you can do about it.

other diseases there are at least cures. there's steps you can take and you can fight against it.

fibro its different. Its basically like having an invisible giant panda that follows you around and occasionally kicks your ass.

and when you try to tell people about the panda they either dismiss it entirely or act like its not so bad to get an ass beating by a bear every few weeks simply because its a panda and not a grizzly.

There are an entire category of videos that you need to be suspicious of immediately at the current moment. Ring/security/dash cam videos. Especially funny/crazy ones. They're low quality as is, so they can get away with covering up some of the app's weakpoints. Also, Jake Paul. He's letting them use his face so he's the poster boy.

ADDENDUM: Also be wary of ragebait style videos. Usually a POC person proudly declaring some insane thing. Also I've seen at least one account pretending to be an insider in North Korea that's decidedly AI.

But other than "this seems way too crazy to actually happen", here's some things to look for.

Check the account. Usually they're very proud of their slop, so they'll have a pro-ai tell somewhere on the page, or more obvious videos.

Sora applies a moving watermark, and while that can be edited out, they're usually not good at it, so you'll see patchy sections.

And the biggest tell: Sora can't handle highly textured areas. Look at hair and trees or grass. Once you start to notice it, it'll become fairly obvious. Even along hard edges. I believe the term is "Sora noise." It's this warbling, almost nauseating shifting in the pattern. This is what those low res videos are hiding.

As far as animation, from the little I've seen, look for consistency issues. Mouths not syncing, weird motion, things not making logical sense/just popping in, and over reliance on super fast motion trying to hide the weaker points. I'm sure there's more, but I haven't seen as many Sora "animations" so I'm not as up to snuff on those.

I'd be cautious of the mainstream/popular fandoms especially.

EDIT: These things are always advancing. The biggest tool is to use your critical thinking to sus out if something is trying to trick you or not.

Hope that helps! And remember, the moment you think you can't be tricked, that's when it'll get you. (Also make sure it's actually AI before you call someone out publicly and embarrass yourself and ruin their life.)

EDIT 2: by a someone who asked I not use their username, and I'm going to put this under a cut because it's long

the dress has always been gold

r u saying this doesn't look white and gold to u???

[PT: btw it's anosmia awareness day! be aware of: anosmic people /End PT]

I made some userboxes for the occasion

[ID: Four red userboxes with the smell disorder flag on them and white text with black outlines. The first says, "This user is anosmic. They can't smell." The second says, "This user can't smell." The third says, "This user is anosmic." The fourth says, "This user has anosmia." /End ID]

And some for other smell disorders too, under the cut!
