I know it’s not for everyone, but man… I really love the bizarre hallucinations AI spits out when generating video. There’s something so deeply surreal and dreamlike about the way objects and people glitch, melt, and morph into completely unrelated things. None of it makes sense, and that’s kind of the point. It’s the uncanny valley dialed up to 11, and I’m here for it because this America’s Funniest AI Home Videos clip is brilliant.
It’s like watching a computer try to mimic human reality after only being shown a stack of old VHS tapes, a Salvador Dalí painting, reruns of Tim & Eric, and a fever dream.
If someone ever decided to make a full show out of this America’s Funniest AI Home Videos idea, I would 100% binge it. Just hours of AI-generated mayhem. Sounds like perfect background noise for the slow unraveling of civilization. Or maybe for some, just a regular Tuesday night.
This particular video that caught my eye came from “Darri3d,” an Icelandic-born director and 3D generalist now based in Norway. He’s worked with big names like Snoop Dogg, the BBC, and Xbox—but it’s these strange, viral AI clips that really show off the weirder side of his creativity.
If you want to see more of his work, you can check him out on his website, YouTube, or Instagram. Just be prepared for a little bit of beauty, a little bit of chaos, and a whole lot of “what the hell did I just watch?”
