I wish the latest traumatic Will Smith spaghetti video was AI

Last year an AI-generated video compilation of Will Smith shovelling spaghetti into his mouth went viral, marking the disturbing potential of artificial intelligence. Now with the recent release of the astoundingly realistic Sora AI, Smith is hopping on the bandwagon to poke some fun at the latest advancement in generative video content.

While AI art generators have been around for some time now, Sora's groundbreaking visuals are certainly a rapid improvement compared to last year's creations. You'd be excused to think that the new and refined clips of Smith's spaghetti feast could only be the work of AI, but I regret to inform you that they are very real.
