The difference for me is that OP posted this (and the Twitter OP) as if the video was real. It makes us look stupid to believe a theatrical preformance as legitimate.
It's like posting scenes from Black Mirror and saying "GUYS LOOK! WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?!"
Is Black Mirror scary? Yeah, because the technology and concepts within black mirror are indeed not far from reality.. Fuck, some were inspired by reality and currently exist. Should we be posting TV show footage and claiming its real footage? No, we really really shouldn't be... Post the real thing or don't. But don't misrepresent reality.
I’ve seen this before, “proof” that they copy/pasted people in an audience for a speech. That speech was from some random chick flick.
Totally agree, claiming tv/movie productions to be real will only hurt your argument, especially if it’s the tech you’re after; “murderdrones are possible, and here how they might work”, or “here is how they can make a small audience look large, did you notice?”.
Using clips from “Hollywood” to prove a point can be very useful, but make sure to clearly state that it’s for “dramatic effect” only.
Agreed :) sorry if I came across like an asshole, I'm really not in real life.
I think you hit the nail on the head with how it ought to be handled. Being up front about the source and using it to illustrate what is possible is good. Some people need a visual to fully understand it, but be truthful about the source of the demonstration.
Sorry if I miss you point, but I fail to see the difference.
Fake (I agree) video, from a series or something.
The tech is here to recreate exactly what’s shown in the video.
Does it really matter if 1 is fake as long as 2 is possible?
There’s a huge difference in “Beam me up Scotty” and the shit shown here.
This shit is scary and true.

Thanks. That makes sense.
