@brian.est: I only started filming when this young Italian man was almost done crossing the street. Just took a picture of the street at first while our bus was stopped and noticed him a second later. Would have made for a good TikTok background looping video. Then I thought, let me ask AI to animate the earlier photo to see how realistic it would be. It obviously wasn’t, lol. And it also couldn’t tell that the dude was Italian wearing glasses and made him Asian. We were in Messina (Sicily, Italy).
