Does anyone know what this orientalist sounding piece is called? I found it on my hard drive and I have no memory of where I downloaded it from or what it's called.
I have to upload a video for some reason because Reddit doesn't seem to allow direct audio uploads.
What's the deal with this video? It feels uncanny and logically makes little sense. I don't think It's AI, since this video came out over 10 months ago. Maybe it's staged but I have no idea how they'd do that.
Reasons why I think it's AI or something weird is happening: The voice over sounds fake, like they're reading off a script on a studio microphone, why is the hawk that comfortable with humans, where the hell would the hawk find a fish in a suburb like that, how would he so easily meet the hawk again, why would he be holding a camera (clearly not a dashcam as shown by the camera shake) in his car? There's just a bunch of weird set of logic/pacing, but the video itself seems spotless (at least to me) from telltale AI signs. It's the exact kind of wholesome animal content that goes viral and is generated by AI all the time.
Again the only reason why I doubt it's AI is because it's over 10 months old. My only idea is that these are trained hawks and this video is staged with actors through that. Still so weird.
