'Olympic croissant' & Eiffel Tower dance it out in video that proves AI can be strangely funny!
You think AI-generated images and videos, an immediate 'ick' happens. Missing fingers, out-of-focus eyes, and faces that melt into each other, there's an argument to be made when it comes to Artificial Intelligence trying to be creative. Maybe leave that to the humans? Perhaps the only brilliant thing to come out of this is getting to see things one could only imagine at one point in their mind's eye. It's safe to say that AI-generated anything is never to be taken seriously, except when a few laughs are to be had. Like this video for instance that shows 'the Olympic croissant' and the Eiffel Tower dancing it out on a laid-out table in Paris.?
What does the viral video show?
Imagine things that are so bad and cringe you have no choice but to laugh. Now add this one to that list. This video was shared earlier in July but only recently earned its share of viral fame on social media. Clearly AI-generated, the video shows a Parisian cafe and a table all laid out with coffee, a croissant and the ever-popular travel souvenir, the Eiffel Tower. But what's this? The "Olympics croissant" and the Eiffel Tower are dancing it off on the table to no spectators. It's not surprising considering how truly ugly AI art is.?
But if you're in the mood to laugh, this one's a good video to watch. It's also reassuring to see just how unnatural and jarringly machine-like any AI-generated video and image looks; it means true creativity is still in the good hands of honest humans. Not sure why people are eager to give points for "creativity" either when it's more a matter of how good your prompt is.
In the clip, the croissant almost takes on a creepy miniature human-like shape as it tries to dance in sync with the tiny Eiffel Tower. It looks like something you'd want to smack immediately if you were eating at that table. But, we promised you laughs, and laughs are guaranteed if you watch this clip.
How did the internet react?
The video was shared on July 23 to coincide with the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics. If you thought the Games were a disappointment, you're not alone. The video may have raked in 14.7 million views and 402k likes, many took to the comments section to unmask their true disappointment. Here's how the internet reacted:
If you're camp "I can't stand AI art," then these tweets will hit home:

I especially loved this video on a kindred spirit calling out bad AI art:
