I'm not convinced. The video has a ton of edits in the middle of him speaking. The cuts are mid-word and mid sentence, not at the end of a sentence. There is no sign of him reading from a teleprompter either, which he undoubtedly would be. There are a lot of facial tics and strange movement of his face, but I don't have a video to compare it to. If anyone has a link to a Damar interview, that would be helpful. This looks like a very good deep fake, IMO.
Undoubtedly, this will be used as proof of life and the video will be used to quash the "Damar is dead" narrative.
Great point! Waking people up, one bad deep fake at a time!
I wouldn't say it was a bad deep fake. If it is a fake, it's pretty good as most people wouldn't even notice the frame clipping.
