Why People Think AI Fight Between Tom Cruise & Brad Pitt Was A Scam
"The clip gained attention for its apparent sophistication; it appeared well-choreographed, competently shot, and appropriately lit, which are all elements that other AI video tools have struggled to convincingly replicate. If Robinson's claim was true, this was a significant leap forward in AI video technology. The kind of thing AI hype-men have been shilling for years and which has-until, if Robinson is to be believed, right now-turned out to be nothing more than snake oil. There's just one problem: It's probably still snake oil."
""The claims being made immediately rubbed me up the wrong way," Peterson wrote. "Other demos of the Seedance model had the usual errors we have come to expect from AI video generators [but this one didn't]." In particular, Peterson explained, "AI video generators are really bad at simulating realistic camera moves, especially handheld shaky cam," but in the Cruise/Pitt video, "we can see the camera movement.""
On February 10, filmmaker RuairĂ­ Robinson posted a video on X claiming it was produced with a two-line prompt in Seedance 2. The clip shows Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt in a fight sequence that appears well-choreographed, competently shot, and appropriately lit. The claim implied a major advance in AI video generation that would overcome prior technical limitations. Writer and developer Aron Peterson questioned the claim, noting that AI video generators typically fail at realistic camera moves while the clip displays camera movement. Peterson began researching Seedance 2.0 and visited Seedance's website.
