“Telling my mom the dog video she sent me is AI feels like telling a little kid Santa isn’t real. I just can’t do it”

A parent often has to tell a child that Santa Claus isn’t real, and this isn’t always easy to break the bad news. Similarly, a child often has to tell a parent or a grandparent that a video is AI (artificial intelligence) and is not real.
