Being washed by the same type of information too much on the network often makes people's judgments inertia.
For example, recently, many people have been blown up by a "machine" with separate upper and lower body, and it looks like a robot pushing a table:
And it went very steadily:
But what overloads the brain is that this leg is also too realistic:
The steps are so natural that they surpass the bipedal robots developed by any robotics company, or rather, like real people.
But the problem is that if this is a person, it doesn't have an upper body. Even if you have an upper body, it's a state of separation, just like a certain comic character.
If it's a robot, the legs are too realistic, and if it's a human, it's only half of it. While many people are puzzled, their brains are also flashing out, calling this an AI-generated video, which has knocked people out.
They believe that even though the background is in a park and there are a lot of passers-by, the ability of AI-generated video is too strong now, and this discordant image happens to be AI's strong point.
Some people also say that this is just a robot, after all, there are many realistic robots now, so it is not a problem to make a pair of realistic human legs.
Someone else came up with the idea of scratching its feet to see if it was a real person. Some netizens complained that this is a robot bought in installments, and the cost has just been paid halfway. The most outrageous thing is that some people keep staring at their thighs endlessly:
So, what exactly is going on with this "machine", high-tech or AI prank?
In fact...... It's magic!
Yes, it's not some high-tech robot, it's not an AI-generated fake video, it's just a magic trick.
来自魔术师Mago Matus。
Speaking of which, this magic trick is quite classic, and it is usually performed in conjunction with the "human cutting magic".
That is, the magician lies on the bed, and then clicks a dimensional slash, and the person looks like he has been cut in half, but the miraculous thing is that the person is still alive and can be restored to the same state with the reversal technique.
On this basis, different magicians will come up with a lot of tricks to make the performance more exciting, such as making the two halves of the body move independently.
And one of the forms is exactly the same as the "robot pushing the table" at the beginning of the article, that is, the lower body pushes the table and runs around.
Change the location, change the background, it's more familiar, right?
The difference is that there is a little less sci-fi feeling, and the magician Mago Matus has added an upper body of a robot, which looks more sci-fi.
Mago Matus called this work Robotina, and he has been on variety shows before, and he has said that it is really amazing. Half-body mechanical half-body body, rattling and spitting fire on the stage, scaring you and unleashing ninjutsu.
Although I have seen various mechanical prosthetic designs in games and anime, this is the first time I have seen this form of retaining meat legs. The stiff and stuttering upper body of the robot and the flexible legs of the real person are comparable to traveling to Cyberpunk 2077.
So... The question is, how exactly does this magic work?
In fact, it is not difficult to guess that the lower half of her body is naturally human legs, and as for her upper body, it is impossible to disappear, so it should be hidden in the table.
There are also many netizens who can't believe it, after all, the table looks very narrow, and this person has to twist into something to get in.
I feel that the "magic props" are playing a trick.
Generally speaking, the basic idea of the human body cutting magic is to hide the actor. Of course, visually it is difficult for the audience to see the flaws, and it is estimated that each magician has his own skills.
Robotina's idea should be similar, after blocking the upper body, the magician needs to think about letting the audience rule out this possibility themselves. That is, using visual inducements or optical illusions to make you mistakenly think that the table is very narrow.
In fact, it can be compared and observed, the table top used by Robina is also similar to the shape of other magicians, which shows that the appearance design of the table is likely to be useful.
For example, the waist of the human body is much higher than the tabletop, and the table is also very layered, with shiny metallic color and dark black.
These designs can make people ignore the true thickness of the table.
For example, if it is a stage effect, it is actually difficult for the audience to see the black part, and the deepest impression should be the thickest metal appearance in the middle, which is indeed very narrow at first glance:
Because the other parts are ignored.
All in all, it's a clever magic design, and there are similar performances all over the world.
And what is most interesting to me is that many people subconsciously think that this is something generated by AI. A long time ago, everyone said that there were pictures and truths.,Later, I didn't believe in pictures when there were too many PS.,But I still feel like the video can't be fake.。 With the development of AI technology, people's trust in video information is also rapidly disintegrating, after all, sound can be synthesized by AI, and pictures can also be generated by AI.
And that makes me curious.
Ten years from now, will people be in a more real pretense in the online world?
