Is not AI, there is a Chinese artist that makes these sculptures

What artist?

Did you mean "Li Hongbo"?

I've seen a sculpture like the one in the video. But at $49,000, I rather wish I hadn't seen this art in the first place.

This video needs to start about 10 seconds before this. I want to see her reaction when the top initially melts off onto her

Not AI -- paper accordion fold, printed on the exterior

I think she was surprised how big it got. I think it was way too expressive and natural to be AI. Usually there's that uncanny valley feel people get when they can't tell exactly what's wrong.

If people can't tell if this video isn't AI, it's a bad sign idd.

Quick Google would've solved that for you.

u/sympatheticSkeptic 19d ago

True, but I would have posted it either way. It's definitely possible in principle and I still didn't know I wanted it.

Edit: actually, not true. I just ran a quick google lens search and while I found a post on X with a link to another post, the other post is in Chinese and my Chinese has never been that good. Maybe later when I have more time I'll try to find the artist for us all.

Not AI. She takes her hands away from that paper vase. AI videos can't let the "people" separate their hands from what they're "touching".

u/ascjced 19d ago

That looks amazing!

u/nobunseedsplease 19d ago

People need to chill tf out questioning if everything is AI, the world and all its cool ideas existed well before AI.

u/Anastrace 18d ago

These sculptures are beautiful! I wonder how long they take to make

u/starkies1 10d ago

Haha when you don’t understand what AI videos are 😅

u/sympatheticSkeptic 19d ago

You're absolutely right, lol! I was reacting to the comments in the original post, which made me afraid of getting accused of posting AI.
