1. This really looks like AI...

...especially with the voice repeatedly talking about cancellation, when his show wasn't canceled.

2. It really looks like... anything posted is being called AI in the first post. How about a tutorial on spotting it,

I'll start with the due diligence with the YouTube (channel?) it came from (I only saw the KIMMEL on my miscellaneous YouTube feed), and let our DUer experts decide whether it's AI. But even if it is, its content isn't uncharacteristic or harmful of KIMMEL, yet I'll self-delete if it's AI. 203 videos, hmmm, lots of work, making a living? Otherwise, if only harmless threads could be allowed - free speech? - to sink like rocks on their own without help.

3. I wouldn't call it a tutorial...

...but things I look for...

...not from a site that the subject would normally use to release content
...disembodied voiceover for most of the video
...incorrect information (in this case, cancellation mentioned repeatedly)
...quickly moving between clips and photos that don't really relate to the words being spoken
...cartoonish effects added like waterfalls from his eyes, flashing stars, etc.
...a quick Google search to see if any legit sources have published the video

4. I'll consider the harmless thread killed, not b/c of being proved whatever, just from being irked. Whole OP here.

And my reference to a "tutorial" was not sincere. But here's submitting to the tutorial that before launching the "AI" allegation a couple of considerations might be entertained:
1- Is there anything untrue or harmful in the item?
2- Can the artist of the item (separate from the purveyor of it) be taken as the artist's opinion, contributing a fresh angle not being seen elsewhere?
3- Does the "AI" allegation contribute anything positive, expose fraud, worth creating the irritation?
