It says altered or synthetic content. Heavily AI generated clickbait. As soon as you hear that AI voice, just close it.

It's what happens when those that no nothing about a 1940 Ford make a video story about a 1940 Ford. A classic example of why people have no trust in the media.

Just watched it right through. Thank God it's mercifully short.

wondering if it's really confusing or if the OP is just critical of it. as there is little that's confusing. ...just a typical promo with lots of pretty pics and a narrative that could use, like many others, some editing.

Sure don't look like my 40 Deluxe coupe! Those grilles aren't USA 40 deluxe!

from the help i have been given, someone whose knowledge base is that deep would certainly question un-factual or misleading information being presented.*

*i understand that's awkwardly worded, but it's the best i can do.

Why would not anyone that appreciates prewar Fords be critical of that cartoon.

AI seems to have brought out the worse distortion of both image and fact; especially on social media.
