The rest of the video shows a car in flames.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">I ran the video through Google\u2019s Synth ID, an AI-detection tool. Its results suggested AI generation in both video and audio confirming it was artificially created. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">On close observation, the video also has a watermark on the bottom right that reads Veo, which is Google\u2019s own AI-generation tool. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The video can be misleading because it has taken authentic footage from the blast that we verified at the time and used those to remake using Veo with added explosions, flames, people and sounds. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Indian fact-checking websites have also reported the video isn\u2019t authentic. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Delhi police have urged users not to circulate unverified material or claims as the investigations are still on. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A screenshot of the AI video with the Veo watermark highlighted and a red AI-generated label\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/591b274a-36f9-4730-ae01-a842dc8d50c3.png.webp.webp\"  width=\"467\" height=\"800\" class=\"ssrcss-11yxrdo-Image edrdn950\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"AI-generated video claims to show Delhi blastpublished at 13:40 GMT 13:40 GMT Shruti MenonBBC Verify senior journalist, reporting&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":289270,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[182,181,507,74],"class_list":{"0":"post-289269","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-artificialintelligence","11":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/289269","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=289269"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/289269\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/289270"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=289269"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=289269"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=289269"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
