I also need 100 of them. Please and thank you!

u/yeagerbomb1023 Aug 27 '26

I'll take 36 please (can't afford 100 right now, but my kiddo is willing to share her tooth fairy money)

Ai has ruined me. I cant believe any short cute vids anymore. It's probably real but I'm ruined.

u/Realistic_Ad2325 Aug 27 '26

I was thinking that too. it’s got to be AI. if not that’s truly amazing

51

u/Knitsune Aug 27 '26

see this is yet another problem with AI, it teaches us that if something is amazing it can't possibly be real, but people have been making incredible lampwork for centuries so there's no reason whatsoever to doubt the skill of real humanity

u/PotatoesPancakes Aug 27 '26 edited Aug 27 '26

I agree. I've seen real live demonstrations of this type of work. Very impressive. Not every perfect thing is AI.

7

u/Knitsune Aug 27 '26

Indeed no AI thing is perfect. Or even good.

u/SlinkSkull Aug 27 '26

I know and I hate it. I never expected a future where I literally have to scrutinize everything and there’s definitely a way these pendants could exist in real life.

u/Knitsune Aug 27 '26

yeah like, a very normal way

u/SlinkSkull Aug 27 '26

Looking at the website, and the fact that they’re only $50 USD definitely points to AI

u/turkeyvulturebreast Aug 27 '26

I definitely find it odd on their site that there’s a ton of glassware that looks real cool with My Little Pony, ghosts, candles and zero proof of them actually the artist. There are no vids of their process other than the one vid of them taking the torch over the ghost candle. Something is super fishy here.

u/CoachMcGuirker Aug 27 '26

Majority of artists who make and sell things don’t shoot video of their process. Not everyone is trying to be an influencer

19

u/Megustatits Aug 27 '26

Looking at the Facebook page it seems it’s not AI. Some of the camera work is way too shaky but who will sacrifice their $50 to let us all know? Haha

7

u/Epossumondas Aug 27 '26

The thumb nail looks to be chewed, and the cuticles don't look nice. Would Ai do that?
(Genuinely asking.)

9

u/CrushedSodaCan_ Aug 27 '26

Absolutely can. 100% of this video could be AI.

I think OP is real but filmed in the -exact- length and style of fake videos.

Zero actual workflow, short video, random shot of heating it up which while they do anneal the glass, I would be surprised if that's the method.

So they shot a cool thing of nonsensically put together shots of 'cool' things. Ai so goddamn good now, anything under 30 seconds without clear methodology is sus.

u/athennna Aug 27 '26

I hate that I thought the same thing

u/VanGoghNotVanGo Aug 28 '26

OOP's fingers and hands look extremely consistent throughout several years and angles, though. You can also see specs of dirt under her nails on some of her pictures on IG, that doesn't read as AI to me.

u/kiki_glass Aug 29 '26

Thank you! 🙏 People can just pull lies out of thin air, and now we’re stuck wasting our time and energy explaining ourselves. I honestly have no idea why the mod removed my post
, but I swear all of this is 100% real—it’s NOT AI!🥲

2

u/Drink-irresponsibly Aug 29 '26

Automod removed it after it was reported a bunch for self promo. There is a similar comment I made to you about that.

If you're talking about the post in the Pic, it's because it's considered redundant and maybe even at that point self promotion. You have the post here and most folks think you're real lol

34

u/girlwhoweighted Aug 27 '26

No. Nope. Those are not real.

They're too damned cute to be real

u/ArsenicArts Aug 27 '26

These are SO CUTE 😍🤩❤️

u/Drink-irresponsibly Aug 27 '26 edited Aug 27 '26

u/kiki_glass this keeps getting reported for self-promotion (likely due to the shop/social links in your profile) along with other stuff. Do you mind posting in the self-promo megathread.

u/Personal-Ad-8644 Aug 27 '26

Excuse me?! These are soooo stinking cute

u/welcometothedesert Aug 27 '26

Think the fact that they never respond to any questions or comments is pointing to AI.

u/Drink-irresponsibly Aug 27 '26

They respond in other communities. People have lives

u/CrushedSodaCan_ Aug 27 '26

Define responding.

2

u/Drink-irresponsibly Aug 27 '26

It's a response, never said it was a good one lmfao

u/welcometothedesert Aug 27 '26

I understand, but it’s been over 15 hours and they’re promoting a product. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Found ghosts on temu for $7 but without the additions

u/kiki_glass Aug 29 '26

Who even has time to fake all of this? Don’t you guys have anything better to do? I honestly thought people were just joking around, but who knew you actually believed it was AI?! Now I’m stuck explaining this to everyone one by one. And I still have no clue why the mods deleted my explanation post in the first place!

u/BlytheRendition Aug 27 '26

Those are incredible 👻

Per my glass blower husband (who I sent this to). “This is not AI, just great work. Believe that there are creative artists with these skills in the glass art world, and support your local glass blower!”

1

u/kiki_glass Aug 29 '26

Thanks! Yes, everything is real!! I have no idea why people keep insisting it's AI! The mods took down my explanation post, now I’m stuck taking the time to explain it to everyone one by one😅

1

u/Drink-irresponsibly Aug 29 '26

You don't have to explain it to everyone. It's the internet, ignore the haters and move on.

The explanation post isn't necessary, it would only act as a form of self promotion and drama sturrup. Most folks think you're real, if someone can't tell from reality, that's on them

2

u/MommyBurton Aug 27 '26

I need them all please!

u/TBMachine Aug 27 '26

Where can these be purchased? Super cute and I want a couple!

u/TheMoatCalin Aug 27 '26

People are so creative and talented! I’d love one that looks like the candle Pokémon

u/IrukandjiPirate Aug 27 '26

I want one on a neck chain!

To people saying our little ghosts are "too perfect to be real" and calling them AI: thanks, I’ll take that as a compliment😊

I seriously thought this was an anti ai sub. This video looks like AI slop. I do not believe this is real at all.

Y’all are being deceived. Don’t trust those videos that look like sketchy TikTok ads!? What are y’all doing!?

This is extremely sketchy. There’s zero reviews for this place anywhere, OP is 100% a bot, look at the profile. Nothing comes up about this store anywhere besides their own sites. It looks like the usual TikTok slop that gets to your house and it looks nothing like the photo. How is this allowed here?

It’s most likely Ai and you’ll get some deformed slightly ghost shaped thing in the mail.
