Definately AI They al move weird The towers jiggle jellylike
But the last video really gives it away He is not moving while paddeling And also not falling over while beeing stationary on a bike
edit: these seem to be real photos animated using AI
Yup. And sorry-- I wasn't trying to waste anyone's time. Was kind of in a rush right there, and probably should have searched harder, or simply not commented.
I've been reading about these guys since the 80's though, and it's always fascinated me how they could pull this stuff off. (altho according to WP, they can't legally deliver it this way, anymore)
Not OP, but are these more legit?

Haha, I love the naturally resonating echo of my voice.
Anyway, I'm thinking that what we have there are real shots of some delivery guys (there's not exactly a shortage) which are then animated via AI. At best, it gives some impression of what the physics of the deliveries might have looked like. At worst, well, you know...
