Don't Fall For The AI Videos Of Models At Sporting Events

There's a growing trend of AI videos on social media, featuring attractive women at sporting events catching the camera's attention.

Attractive women at sporting events going viral on TV is nothing new. It's been happening for decades. Most famously, Katherine Webb became a household name during the 2013 BCS National Championship Game, when she was shown on the broadcast, as Brent Musburger immediately reacted. Webb went super viral, even landing a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue photoshoot.

Webb, now in her 30s, has been considering a return to modeling.

"If an agency were to call me and be like, ‘Hey, we've booked you for this awesome fashion show in New York,' I would not hesitate to join," Webb said. "I live for the runway. I love it so much."

But, Katherine Webb aside, there's a new trend online: AI videos of women at sporting events.

The videos, of course, are not real. They are AI-created. But that's not stopping people from falling for them.

Even Yankees legend Reggie Jackson fell for one this week.

These videos are getting made with specific prompts. For what purpose: we don't know, other than to trick people and go viral.

Some are even including ESPN.

"This is so cool," one shared.

Warning to everyone on social media: Be skeptical

If you see something on social media these days that seems too good - or too crazy - to be true, it probably is.

That's especially the case when an attractive woman is involved. I've personally came across dozens of these videos, as the algorithm feeds you more and more the more you watch.

Unfortunately, not everyone can identify what's real and what's AI today. But be on the alert for this kind of video moving forward.
