This video, viewed millions of times on TikTok, Facebook and X, claims to show Venezuelans taking to the street to thank the US for detaining Maduro.
But the video is a combination of four AI-generated clips and was first posted on TikTok by a user who frequently shares AI videos. It's not real.

Zelensky condemned new Russian strikes across Ukraine, noting civilian targets were hit in Kyiv, Dnipro, Kharkiv, and Kherson. “Russia isn’t serious about diplomacy,” he said. “Their goal remains to cause as much harm as possible. Our response, defending life, will only grow stronger.”

I'm not sure I understand the idea and workings behind this type of social media. I'm supposed to share short ideas, and then people can shortly answer them? Wierd. This frame of commumication is from the start biased towards short, shallow shouts: not a platform for deeper conversations.

Dazzling deep-sea ribbonfish🎀
These sightings are all of fish in the genus Trachipterus—members of the ribbonfish group, aptly named for their thin, ribbon-like bodies. As these fish mature, they change from dark red to shiny silver, and their frilled caudal and pelvic fins are greatly reduced.

What is this PNEUMA, the moving force that seperates us from stone? I feel like we're just making a false dychotomy between "alive" and "not-alive", because we can't pinpoint the difference between self-replicating rna and simple chamistryc But OBV we SEE that we're different from rocks, don't we?
