Fake videos are not needed when it comes to Glenn Beck. Here’s a real video of Beck, showing how he uses Vick’s Vapor Rub to cry on cue.

Who could tell? There is nothing he could be seen doing in a video that would make me suspect for an instant that it was fake.

To what end? To make him look silly? And why would anyone spend that kind of money to do something he does perfectly well himself?

Yes, this is coming.

Basically they use the same tech they did in star wars vii for the deceased actor who played grand moff tarkin. They basically make a digital mask of the persons face over a real person saying/mouthing the words they want that person to say.

At this point I would guess it isnt 100% perfect and that as a cgi effect it has some telltale signs an authentic video image dosnt have.

Does anyone know if such technology really exists now? I have never seen anything to do anything even close to this yet.

I have seen it, and it was a bit scary. Give me some time and I'll see if I can hunt it down.

Ok, found it. In the video here, they've taken separate real videos of Bush and Putin and changed them. Watch for yourself and you'll see why it's scary.

You raise a good question. Other than eyeballing it how does one know for sure something is CGI or not once it is processed and produced in a movie format?

Every video of Glenn Beck is fake, even the ones that are “real”. I can’t stand the guy.

He should worry less about artificial intelligence and more about his natural stupidity...
