He’s not selling the schematics for the “Produce Preamp”, that’s a freebie on his website.

I downloaded it. It’s a PDF of a circuit where instead of a 9v battery, there’s 2 nails and a banana.

Then he demos the sound in the video. A sound that could not possibly be produced by the circuit in the PDF or any reasonable variation of the circuit.

This is all presented without any tongue in cheek. It’s presented in the video, the website and PDF as being 100% real.

Yet, it’s objectively and indisputably fiction.

To go through all the trouble of setting this channel up and fabricating all the devices and the website with schematics and recording and editing the videos at a very high level seems extremely unlikely.

That’s a lot of work for very, very little or no gain. Unless I’m missing the big scam and there is a bunch of money to be made, but I don’t see it.

However, if this was AI slop. That’s 100% reasonable. Who cares, just write a prompt and out comes the video.

“Create a video of a new pedal that uses a banana for electricity.”

The whole thing has the feel of long AI hallucination for a vague prompt. It fits really well.

Except, I haven’t heard of any service that could generate a video with that level of quality and duration.

I totally expect that to be available sometime in the relatively near future. But from my understanding, currently available AI models can’t possibly be responsible for high quality videos of that length.

And given these videos have been showing up for many months makes the whole thing that much more strange.

It seems incredibly improbable that a person would put so much energy into creating high quality videos of nonsense for no purpose. Not impossible, but it just doesn’t add up.

It seems completely possible that, in 3 or 4 years time, publicly available AI services will be able to produce videos of this quality and duration.

I can’t think of any reasonable explanation for why these videos exist or for how they were made.
