Viral Will Smith Video Has Fans Questioning Reality

Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars is one for the books. An Oscar awardee physically assaulting the host of the night on the stage of the Academy Awards became the biggest meme of the year. The highlight of both of their careers for sure.

The name Smith makes headlines ever so often. But this time the reason it’s back in discourse is not another family feud. Rather, the catch is no Smith was involved in this particular instance.

A video posted by a fan @WillSmith2Real on X showcases two videos with the Pursuit of Happyness actor in them. These videos are AI-generated and were made a year apart. The difference between the two is extremely surprising. It shows how alarmingly fast AI has grown.

What is most surprising is that, if the information was not shared, no one would have questioned the authenticity of the video.

The video shows Smith eating spaghetti. This is a harmless rendition of AI videos. But it is bizarre how real it seems. When a popular figure like Will Smith can be made to do what he did not do in the slightest using AI, it is spine-chilling what can be done with those who are naive and unknown.

With the video, netizens aren’t stupid enough to not see the dangerous implications of such a thing. The video has opened the discourse on a very important topic. And everyone has put forth their two cents on the matter. The video prompted one fan on X to comment “we live in a simulation”. And with the way things are going, this statement does not sound like an exaggeration at all.


Here are some other things netizens have said regarding the video:




The video is unnervingly realistic. The power of AI can drive the world to greatness or doom. Not so long ago, AI-generated explicit pictures of Taylor Swift had been there on the internet. With the current scenario, the latter seems more likely if people do not use AI for the right reasons and with good intentions.
