Beware of Hyperrealistic Cgi

Hyper realistic CGI started its career in Hollywood movies and it has now become widespread upon the world. Hyper Realistic CGI is dangerous because if the human eye is not able to tell it is false, it will certainly be used to deceive, calumniate and other forms of evil. 

Nothing could be scarier than a world in which it is nearly impossible to distinguish truth from falsehood. The rise of hyper realistic CGI will certainly bring with itself a massive ascent in mental health problems and suicides. 

But despite its obvious disadvantages, people on the internet keep using this technology for mere entertainment. Little do they realize they are gambling with fire - a fire that may very well burn them in the face - . 

For example, look at this person who made a video parody about Scooby Doo and Five Nights at Freddy's. He used Blender 3D models to look like stop motion figurines.  



Or look at this guys making hyper-realistic CGI videos about a creepy location named "The Back Rooms". 



The Back Rooms has a videogame as well:

They actually fooled me into believing this place was real. However, further research showed that The Back Rooms is just a massive urban legend about a fictional dimension full of strangely familiar locations and creepy entities. Some of the "Levels" or regions of the Back Rooms are inspired on real locations, like this hotel in Britain. 

Some of the people who follow this kind of videos are honest enough to recognize the Back Rooms are invented by people and not real. Others start role playing hard and pretending that the Back Rooms are real. What's this, Santa Claus 2.0? When I asked them why they were lying so carelessly they replied that it was "fun".  

Right now there is a massive trend on You Tube called VHS Horror, hyper-realistic horror videos emulating the look of VHS videos from the 90's. Huge problem here. While modern CGI may require high quality images to unleash its true potential, VHS videos always looked grainy and odd. This means the videos would be more likely to deceive people because their grainy images make it harder to tell if it is CGI. 

The hand of the establishment can be seen participating on this fashions, for example, with the promotion of artificial intelligence and the surge of terrible CGI-and-Live Action remakes. The Lion King remake is particularly notorious on this regard: the whole movie was made with CGI, and yet Disney did little to inform the media about this detail. This is why so many people erroneously call it Live Action to this day. They deceived you and they like it. 

I think Kane Pixels, the guy responsible for some of the videos above, may be funded by the CIA, however, this is pure speculation. People like him popularize this kind of hyper-realistic animation and as it becomes more popular, it may be perfected. I don't see why the system would ignore the high potential of deceiving the sheeple with this type of CGI.  

On the positive side of things, there are two limits to hyper-realistic CGI that may save us from the deep fake dystopia. The first one is that as you become used to CGI, it becomes harder to see it as realistic. The second one is that the elites have so much contempt for the people, that they don't even try to make intelligent deceptions. Some people may be more likely to recognize CGI due to experience in arts, photography or just good vision and attention to detail. 

However, I realize the only one who can prevent us from deception, is God.
