OP responded and then deleted thier response. They're trying to say the script was ai generated, and the deepfake was ai, which didn't happen for either thing.

lol OK then.

I suspect the deepfake did use AI though. The "deep" in "deepfake" comes from "deep learning" i.e. deep neural networks. That was the technology used at the time, though as I say, they could have used a different technique.

Thats a lot different than the generative ai slop that's used now
