According to what do you recognise that video was made by AI (I am starting to be freaked)

Yesterday I saw the video (below in com.) with the HeyGen Avatar 3.0. So realistic – moves so believable, shot from different angles, lipsync... It is a huge shift but with all that perfection I can see possible threats of usage. How can you recognise this "fiction" from "reality"? Please, give me tips. 😀

Humans generally dont do repetitive gestures evenly or in an uniform freq ( hand movement, head shakes) instead our actions and gestures are sporadic and are mostly for emoting / emphasising something. AI's movement and gestures seems very calculated or uniform. P.S. I am really clutching at straws trying to get some differences 😂

Launching soon!
Always the weird hands/body parts & the cliche'd AI "look"!

I think you can tell it's AI from the slightly 'uncanny valley' effect - the facial movements and expressions seem a bit off compared to a real person. Also the lighting and environment look artificially generated rather than an actual video shoot. But honestly, it's getting harder and harder to tell as the AI gets more advanced. Kinda freaky indeed! 😳 Curious what others think about spotting AI vids.

You can usually tell a video was made by AI through a few signs: overly smooth facial features, constant eye contact with the camera, and a monotone voice. AI avatars also tend to pause precisely between sentences and never interrupt the person they’re “speaking” to, making interactions feel calculated rather than natural.

A look at the lips and hands is enough, it's usually enough for me to determine that the video is generated. But technology in this direction is developing rapidly, so maybe it will be possible to do it only with the help of software.
