The clip was shared across platforms like X and TikTok, with users highlighting how difficult it is to differentiate real footage from AI-driven content. One comment read: &ldquo;This is fascinating but also a bit unsettling. Really makes you wonder where the line between real and AI content will be in a year from now." Others joked about the impossible point of &ldquo;inhaling the bone&rdquo; or the sauce mysteriously appearing inside the claw.
This isn&rsquo;t an isolated case. A similar video of the same &ldquo;woman&rdquo; eating a chicken drumstick with the bone intact has also surfaced, reinforcing concerns over deepfake food content. Many are now questioning the role AI will play in shaping what we se and whether we&rsquo;re ready to trust what appears on screen.
As AI continues to blur reality and fiction, viewers are left asking, "What&rsquo;s real and what&rsquo;s generated?" With technology advancing so fast, it&rsquo;s becoming essential to double-check everything we encounter online.
