Yes, the video showing a kangaroo at the airport with an airline ticket in hand was created by artificial intelligence .
Despite appearing real, the recording doesn't show any real animals, people, or scenery. Everything was generated using AI technology, including the audio of the argument between two women.
The video was published by the profile Infinite Unreality , which defines itself as a visual effects artist. The Hive Moderation analyzed the content and indicated a 99.9% chance of it having been generated by AI . The audio, evaluated by the Hiya , received scores of 16 and 29 on a scale of 0 to 100 for authenticity, indicating a probable deepfake .
Kangaroo at the airport with AI: How was that possible?
This type of technology is no longer restricted to professional laboratories and studios; anyone with internet access can use it . With the popularization of tools like Runway , Sora , Gen-2 , and Pika Labs , creating realistic-looking fictional content has become possible with just a few clicks and text commands.
These tools use generative models trained on large volumes of data to produce videos, images, voices, and even simulate human interactions. The challenge is that the more realistic this content becomes, the harder it is to distinguish what is authentic from what is artificial .
And the question that remains is:
If even an AI-generated kangaroo managed to fool so many people, how can we know what information to trust these days?
Below are the main AI tools for image and video generation:
These platforms allow you to generate complete scenes with realistic characters , dialogue, movements, and settings such as airports, shopping malls, or busy streets.
How can you tell if a video was made with AI?
Tools such as:
…they help to verify whether an image, video, or voice was artificially generated.
Want to try it yourself?
If you want to create a video with AI, try tools like:
- Pika Labs – https://pika.art
- Runway ML – https://runwayml.com
- Luma AI – https://lumalabs.ai
Simply describe what you want to see in the scene (e.g., "a kangaroo with a ticket at the airport") and the AI will generate the video for you in seconds.
But be warned: AI can also be used to deceive
Therefore, it's important to always check sources and think twice before sharing any video that seems too "perfect" or out of the ordinary.
Furthermore, it's worth remembering that AI-generated data can contain bias , errors, or inconsistencies , depending on the sources used to train the models. Making decisions based on unvalidated information, without context or reliable history, is a growing risk, especially in the corporate world.
The use of AI to generate reports, projections, and analyses is growing. But what guarantees that this information is correct? What validates the origin of the data? How can we know if the AI is relying on reliable and up-to-date sources?
The answer lies in controlling the source : it is essential to have access to the right data , stored and managed with clarity, governance, and traceability .
So, don't forget:
Kangaroos may appear in viral videos, but they are not reliable sources of information.
