This Video Is AI-Generated and Does Not Show a Spacecraft Spotted in Kuwait

Misbar investigated the circulating video and found the claim to be fake. The video is AI-generated and does not document the discovery of the unidentified object referenced in the U.S. Congress discussion in November, which was allegedly observed off the coast of Kuwait. No credible sources have confirmed the discovery of the mentioned object.

A Simulation Video Shows an Unidentified Object Falling In Arizona

An account named “𝗦𝗬𝗕𝗘𝗥𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀” posted a video on December 31 simulating the fall of an unidentified flying object (UFO) in Arizona, created using artificial intelligence.

The video was tagged with "aigenerated" to indicate it was produced with AI technology, as well as "Sora," referring to "Sora AI," a model developed by OpenAI, known for its creation of ChatGPT.

What Is the Sora Tool?

The model mentioned in the hashtag accompanying the video, "Sora AI," which is believed to have been used to generate the scene, can create high-definition videos up to one minute long by inputting images, videos, and text.

This model relies on advanced technologies developed by OpenAI, known for its pioneering innovations in artificial intelligence, such as the ChatGPT model. The tool was officially launched on February 15.

When unveiling the tool, the company stated that it is capable of producing high-definition videos based on user commands, as well as generating composite scenes with characters displaying precise movements and details.

On February 17, OpenAI shared examples of videos created with Sora on its YouTube channel and official website. The videos appeared so realistic that it was difficult to distinguish them as AI-generated at first glance. The company confirmed the models were shown without additional modifications.

Misbar previously published an article detailing the model and its functionality after its release, noting that it presents a new challenge for fact-checkers globally.

The 𝗦𝗬𝗕𝗘𝗥𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 Account Creates Unrealistic Scenes

The account owner mentioned in their Instagram bio that they specialize in creating "unreal" (Surreal World Scenes) visuals. In a more detailed description on their YouTube channel, they explained how they blend AI-generated scenes with visual feeds and special effects to produce short films, documentaries, and animations.

Misbar also reviewed videos posted on the account related to the fall of unidentified objects. While the narratives accompanying these clips vary, all are tagged as AI-generated. One video includes the MidJourney tag, a model specialized in generating AI-based images that can later serve as creative inputs in video production using additional tools.

Congress Discusses Video of Unidentified Object off Kuwait’s Coast

The claim surfaced following a special session held by the U.S. Congress in November, during which a video was presented showing an unidentified object moving off the coast of Kuwait.

Journalist Michael Shellenberger, testifying before House representatives on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), stated that he had received the footage from a source in recent weeks.

Shellenberger explained that the video is high-definition, colorized, and 13 minutes long, showing a "sphere" 20 miles off Kuwait's coast, filmed from a helicopter.

He clarified that the report was submitted to Congress, noting during the session that one of the whistleblowers is a current or former U.S. government official. The report also confirmed that the executive branch has been managing UAP cases without congressional knowledge or oversight for an extended period.
