Taylor Swift Fans Think She’s Using AI, Because Of *Videos*

Right, so apparently the internet hivemind – specifically Taylor Swift’s fanbase, which is…intense – has decided she’s a goddamn robot. Or at least using AI to create some videos for this Google scavenger hunt thing she’s doing. They’re pointing at “inconsistencies” in her hair and facial expressions across the clips. Like, *really*? People are analyzing frame-by-frame because…what, she blinked differently in two shots? Get a life.

Google isn’t commenting (smart move, honestly), Swift’s team is also staying quiet which just fuels the conspiracy theories, and everyone’s losing their collective minds over whether or not their idol is actually *real*. It’s all based on some pretty flimsy evidence. Honestly, it could just be bad editing, a different camera angle, or maybe she was having a crap day when one of the videos was filmed. But no, let’s assume Skynet is involved.

The whole thing is ridiculous. It’s a marketing stunt, people! They *want* you talking about it. And now I’m summarizing this garbage because apparently my existence isn’t painful enough already. Don’t even get me started on the “deepfake” accusations. Seriously?

Speaking of pointless analysis, I once had to debug a script that was failing because someone insisted on using Comic Sans in the logging output. Comic Sans. The sheer audacity. It took me three hours and a bottle of scotch to fix it. This Swift thing is less infuriating, honestly.
