While some AI-generated videos are obvious, I am having more trouble identifying whether some of the videos were real or not. If you can now trust Google Gemini to spot AI-generated video instead of just guessing or hoping someone in the comments knows the answer.
Dangers of AI-Generated Video
In the first case, AI videos may seem harmless. Sometimes they’re just sexy animals, or ambience videos. Until now, they’re pretending to be real videos with realistic creators offering helpful advice or encouraging viewers to download a file or try an issue-solving solution or hack.
A problem is either the advice, file, solution or hack (or completely false) or it’s malicious. On YouTube, thousands of users downloaded malicious files from an entire ghost network of AI-generated videos that persuaded them to download malware. But even tech-related doesn’t have to be it. These videos may also provide health advice for s. It’s a real expert who you think is the source of , but it’t all completely fake.
But the problem is that it’s about sharing with . If you see a real video and post it to the social network, you’ll see that video. In the case of , it’s a machine generated by AI. In some cases, sharing fake content can make you lose followers and even your job.
The Google Gemini has added a new AI video detection feature that will help you differentiate between real and AI. This is not available even in ChatGPT, but at the moment.
How Gemini Detects AI Videos
It currently only allows AI videos and images created with Google’s AI tools. It is an invisible watermark that users can’t remove from Everything Google’s AI, which creates it. This watermark, called the SynthID (Synth ID) lives inside all audio, image and video AI created with Google.
In the Gemini app, a scan of for the SynthID watermark (Gemini) to determine whether AI is used. The watermark is even if a video or image has been edited with AI, and the picture/video just after it was shot.
Checking for Google AI-Generated Video
Firstly, download the video in question first. You might need a third-party tool or site to do this, like . How do I download YouTube Shorts? Try these tips.
login to Gemini app (mobile or web) Alternatively, click the + button in the chat box to upload your video is needed for Then. It supports up to 90 seconds or 100MB of . If the video was made using AI, ask Gemini if it was created after uploading to an image.

A response to a usually takes less than 30 seconds. I love Gemini, but it doesn’t just tell you if the video was AI or not; what is most important to me? In case the video contains a SynthID watermark, Gemini says that you have found this Watermark and any other indications of the content has been created by AI.
I just downloaded an AI clip from Gemini’s Veo site and asked Gemin if the video was made with AI. I had an AI positive answer within seconds,.

Testing for AI in Any Video
Gemini is not guaranteed to test any video for AI, but can also test it on a given timeline. Testing I found it really well in my tests, spotting AI-generated video created by other tools.
A clip of the video can be downloaded or a link to the Video is pasted into your browser, and you can download. At times Gemini was incredibly confused, and didn’t really know what the link was. Gemini e.g., for example, thought that a YouTube video of gingerbread village was an AirHead video instead of the original one on its own “It’s just like Google has been trying to explain why I think it is in fact so much as this.” The correct result was just after asking again for the right answer, which I am unable to get.
Some videos from YouTube were a test for me, and I tried some of the videos. The following prompt was used to avoid the confusion glitch “What is this video about YouTube link and does it use AI““.
I knew for certain that Video A was AI generated and Gemini got it correct.

I tried another video that I know for sure doesn’t use AI. Despite the fact that it was developed pre-AI, and is known for its failure to use AI, even today, his creator is well famously acknowledged for not using AI. Gemini was not able to explain why it’s not an AI-generated video.

Test Images for AI Too
And you’re not just videos, only video. The image is also tested by Gemini for AI as well as a test on images taken in the company’s own research lab, Ge mini. This works best again with Google’s AI tools, including Nano Banana and other images created using Google – for example.
The process works the same. Upload the image and ask Gemini if the image uses AI.
Gemini usually tells you for both images and video whether it’s completely or partially AI. Suppose for example, a creator may have created the base image or video background by AI but then manually edited parts of it to get the final result. A hybrid version of is this.
Not a Perfect Guarantee of AI
But Google Gemini isn’t the ideal tool for paraphrasing as with any AI-detection. Does make errors? Gemini made mistakes in my tests alone when he was asking me on YouTube video.
It is a much more effective than most other AI platforms in finding the content of AI. Since Google is adding this to its new feature, Plus may be better at displaying AI-generated video and images across all platforms.
Those who are sick of seeing AI-generated content, have begun to be able to detect and reduce it from other platforms like TikTok. Other AI-detection tools also help you decide what’s real and fake.
