W/o a doubt, it is AI modified. Weird cuts. His nods/gestures are consistent w/ Japanese communication--but don't fit w/ the audio. His mouth appears to form the Eng words we hear, but speech doesn't match gestures. Zoomed in image cuts out WWWWHW info. AI translation? Maybe. Can't know from this.

I have no doubt the sentiment is what folks are feeling. It is just that the video was clearly AI modified, and we always need to identify those instances, and know where/how to verify, validate, and confirm. AI isn't always inaccurate, but knowing when it is or isn't AI is essential.

It’s an AI rendering of dubbing so his lips look as though he is speaking English. Sadly, it just makes it look like fake news to me. People are able to read subtitles, or listen to dubbed speech without being put off by the original language being spoken. It’s kinda dumb imo.

Canada was 4th in US debt holdings for a while, now in 6th, but still up there. Somehow Luxembourg and the Cayman Islands, two tiny countries , have surpassed us?!?

On a red background, a wheel pie chart shows which countries own US debt. In the centre is a ball and chain graphic, indicating the US is tied to these countries, in a way showing that these countries are masters of the US. There are 20 countries on the list, and the redt of the world accounts for a trillion dollars in government debt.
