A senior Palestinian official says President Mahmoud Abbas has canceled his participation in a meeting scheduled Wednesday with President Joe Biden and other Mideast leaders.
Yeah, with sound on the story is quite different. I had it muted last night.
That said, the value of any photographic or video evidence has gone down for a long time, especially now with AI. Even without that, tampering with a video’s sound has always been trivial.
So I’m generally skeptical of any such evidence, no matter which side it comes from. Moreso when we’re talking about war, where truth is the first casualty and manipulating the public opinion is very much part of any strategy.
It’s unfortunate, because real people are suffering and I’m here sitting comfortably and raising an eyebrow because I can’t trust the reports about it.

If it isn’t a rocket, then WTF is the sound before the explosion?
A proper missile
Oh, yeah. I thought you meant to say that it was explosives planted there.

Video AI is a long way from a video like that. Images? Yeah possible. Video ai? Maybe next year.
