You can not. CAN NOT write this type of scene involving #Trump. Hollywood would kick it back and say: “That would NEVER happen.” And yet.. It did! At the #G7Summit no less. 😳😱😂🤣😂

1. That never

Never could happen .

[Hortensis]

2. Would altering video and not saying so qualify this as a deepfake?

Funny idea, but it needs to be labeled, also so it's not libeling the U.S. Marine Band.

[JHB]

10. No, this would be an ordinary fake, like an article from The Onion...

...or editing together parts of someone's speech to make it seem like they said something completely different, which if misidentified as the real thing constitutes actual fake news (as opposed to merely hurling the term at anything you don't like).


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepfake

Deepfake (a portmanteau of "deep learning" and "fake"[1]) is a technique for human image synthesis based on artificial intelligence. It is used to combine and superimpose existing images and videos onto source images or videos using a machine learning technique known as generative adversarial network.[2] The phrase "deepfake" was coined in 2017.

Because of these capabilities, deepfakes have been used to create fake celebrity pornographic videos or revenge porn.[3] Deepfakes can also be used to create fake news and malicious hoaxes.[4][5]

An example of deepfake technology – actress Amy Adams in the original (left) are modified to have the face of actor Nicolas Cage (right).

19. Must involve faking the image, alone or also. Got it. :)

[MyOwnPeace]

3. Hey!

That Jr. High band has to start SOMEWHERE, right?

[yesphan]

4. I heard that several

years ago and almost died laughing.
In this instance, it didn't really happen.

[SCantiGOP]

5. I would say really stupid instead of hilarious

crap like this is just fodder for the idiots that claim that news is faked to make Trump look bad. We don't have to invent stuff to make him look like the clown he is.

[Sancho]

6. That had to be on purpose...

[Claritie Pixie]

7. LMFAO!!!! I have tears running down my face! 😂

Incredibly appropriate entrance music for Bloat Boy. I like this altered version because we all need a good laugh!

[malaise]

9. You too

That was hilarious

[mercuryblues]

8. This has to be fake

Not only could the band not hold a note, even I could tell they were out of tune with each other. So it not like they didn't know how to play the song, they don't know how to play, period. It basically sounded like the 1st 2 weeks of beginner band class.

[Leith]

14. I said the same thing to hubby

I remember those days.

[grumpyduck]

11. Fake or not,

IMHO they should have played the Darth Vader theme.

With apologies to John Williams.

[Leith]

16. Or the theme of Jaws

more apologies to John Williams.

[grumpyduck]

18. LOL, but

there's a difference. The shark was just doing what sharks do: it's programmed into them and they don't know anything else. But good 'ol Darth made a conscious decision to do what he was doing, just like this person, i.e., to be a royal asshole.

[asiliveandbreathe]

12. One of the tweets on thread observed the trump admin put to music...as she tried to

type through tears....

[underpants]

13. 👀

Watching later

[underpants]

23. I think that's fake but it's hilarious

[FakeNoose]

15. Wow I thought my speakers were malfunctioning

Was the trumpeter really THAT bad? I can't believe s/he did it on purpose.

[Archae]

17. The band is called the "Portsmouth Sinfonia..."

And they are deliberately as bad as they are, most are people who (in their own words) "Don't know which end of a violin to blow."

Couple of the guys from Monty Python are involved with this too.

[rusty fender]

20. Brilliant!

I when I watched it

[lame54]

21. Apparently fake...

But with Trump you never know

[Dem_4_Life]

22. OMG LOL

[Totally Tunsie]

24. "I have the best bands..."
