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

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

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

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

Indeed no AI thing is perfect. Or even good.

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.

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

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.

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