44 Dumb People Who Were So, So Wrong

Buzz Feed29-05-2025

Uh...for the record, Tony Stark is NOT a real person.
And a widow is not the same thing as a spinster.
This person was really, really confused about the meaning of the word "prequel."
This is a wild claim...and a very good comeback.
This person forgot about talking.
Maybe don't call someone a "dumb fuck" if, y'know, you're the one who's wrong.
It's one thing to confuse "there" and "their"; it's another entirely to defend it to this level.
Ditto with "to" and "too."
Similarly, confusing pepperoni and pepperoncini could be reasonable...except this person fully thought pepperoni was just called "red circles" or "hot salami."
The first person was so wrong that the other person had to bring alligators into this, like we're still in elementary school.
Two of the people here were reallyyyyyyy confused about math. Or how many pennies are in a dollar.
Hint: you're wrong.
This person was actually correct in saying this isn't 3/8 (though it's pretty darn close), but they somehow thought half an inch was smaller than 3/8 of an inch.
I'm not sure how basic this math is, considering you couldn't get it right, bud.
It's a little concerning that this note is from a teacher.
Had this person never used a charger before???
Someone explain PEMDAS to this poor fool.
I don't know where this person got their info about humans not having instincts, but I think they need to go back to school.
This is also weirdly specific and incorrect info. Where are people learning this stuff???
I should've known this reply was gonna be nonsense when the person spelled school "skl."
"I don't remember this, so you're wrong" is...certainly one way to go through life!
Listen, I hate mansplaining too, but maybe make sure you're actually correct about something before calling it out.
This person was just so, so dumb.
Yep, someone actually thought you could make an iced latte like this.
This poor father went his whole life thinking this.
This smartie pants bought a special water bottle to "add more hydrogen" to their water.
And this genius accepted an arcade token as legal currency.
Cheese DOES go bad, for the record.
Whoever made this "map" needs to go back to school.
As well as whoever taught this to actual students.
And every single person that didn't realize 1, 2, 3, etc. ARE, in fact, Arabic numerals.
How on earth did this person think this lane was a spot?
This Bible store really misunderstood this quote.
This person forgot that gas stoves are still usable during a power outage, which might've been understandable if they hadn't resorted to using actual candles.
I have a feeling this woman isn't actually a mechanic.
This person REALLY misunderstood how to use a crockpot.
I'm a little concerned for this person.
This brain fart is as embarrassing as it is hilarious.
This person probably should've used Google to make sure George Lucas was really dead.
This person probably should've pulled out a calculator.
Along with this person.
This person really, really tried to contribute.
They say there's no such thing as a dumb question, and yet...
And finally, this might be one of the dumbest questions I've ever seen.

Bad News: Google's Veo 3 Can Make VR Slop, Too

Just when we thought the AI slop fest was over, Google pulls us right back in. First, we had YouTube slop, then video game slop, and then we had Michael Bay slop. And just in case you weren't already slopped full of slop juice squeezed straight from the slop teat of Veo 3, Google's latest AI video generator model, you all had to go ahead and invent new kinds of AI slop that make Sloppy Joe himself say, 'I think that's too much slop for me, fam.' Introducing: 360-degree video slop made by Google Veo 3. Here's a collection of a bunch of the clips I created with VEO 3 to test out it's ability to generate 360° video. I'll post a link below to a VR ready youtube video so you can test it on your own VR headsets. — Martin Nebelong (@MartinNebelong) June 6, 2025 That's right, your poor, innocent VR content isn't safe from Veo 3's generative abilities either. While I haven't had a chance to actually view this content in VR, creating it couldn't be simpler. Per Henry Daubrez on X, who initially discovered the trick, all you have to do is add 'make it 360 degrees' to your Veo 3 prompt to generate video that can later be viewed in VR. Well, almost. There's a little bit of fussing with the metadata afterwards, too, in order to get everything working right. In a post on X, Daubrez says, '…the next step is to inject the right metadata in your file so you can play it as an actual 360 video. I tried a few available solutions, but in the end, using the Terminal was the only one [that] actually [worked] for me with ExifTool… Once it's saved with the right metadata, it will be recognized as an actual 360/VR video, meaning you can just play it in VLC and drag your mouse to look around.' 🤯 How to generate VR/ 360° videos directly with VEO3 Alright, I just randomly stumbled on that very neat trick: If you prompt for a 360° video in VEO3 (like literally write "360°" ) it can generate a Monoscopic 360 video, then the next step is to inject the right metadata in… — Henry Daubrez 🌸💀 (@henrydaubrez) May 30, 2025 But that's pretty much it: prompt Veo 3 and then slightly alter the metadata, and boom, you've got an AI-generated video that can be played back in VR. There are some quirks, of course, like the addition of black bars around some of the generated content. But for the most part, Veo 3 works about as well with 360-degree content as it does with anything else prompters have thrown at it, especially, as Daubrez mentions, when you consider that this likely isn't even a planned feature of Veo 3. If you want to watch some of Veo 3's ad hoc VR video for yourself, there's already some on YouTube for your viewing pleasure (or displeasure, depending on what your relationship to AI is). Just like with any Veo 3 application, there's big potential for slop here, but I'll be honest, I'm going to give this one a bit of a pass. I don't think VR video is quite at the point of high art yet (no offense, VR creators), and, to be honest, I kind of like the idea of being able to generate VR experiences that don't exist yet, especially because the VR catalog is still somewhat limited. I'm sure I'll end up eating those words sooner rather than later, and just like a Sloppy Joe, it might eventually erode your body from the inside out—but hey, there's a time and a place for junk food, so have fun while you can, folks.

This AI video generator is going viral, and it's completely free to use

AI video generators are having a bit of a moment. Whether it's Google's Veo 3, complete with audio integration, or something like Kling 2 or Runway that are creating movie-quality clips with ease, the technology has come a long way. But along with the big-name companies vying for the best AI video generator, there are some smaller underdogs of the AI video world. One that recently caught my eye was Hailouai. I kept seeing videos generated by the model popping up on sites like X, with users showing off their impressive generations. This isn't the first time we've talked about Haliuo, in fact, we were impressed by a major update it revealed late last year. But the AI company is back in people's minds with its most recent updated called the Director model. In this version, like a few other big AI video generators, you can input camera angles and movements, to give your videos a bit more action. This new update gives users on Hailuo a bit more control over what they are producing. It allows for the alteration of camera angles in prompts in two ways. Users can either choose from a pre-selection of options like 'downward tilt' or 'right walking' or they can come up with their own. Like most video generation experiences, creativity can either reward or hinder you. Sometimes, getting too complicated with camera angle suggestions resulted in a complete mess of an experience, or the model would ignore it completely. I found more success when using Hailuo by focusing on the options I had been given. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. You can choose to either make a video from scratch with a text prompt or use an existing image that you want to edit. You can also add an image of someone and ask for them to be dropped into a scene. This option comes with an incredibly long list of warnings about use of that image and follows the same concerns that come with deepfakes on any platform. All of this technology can be found in competitors like Runway, Kling and Higgsfield. One of the major benefits of Haliuo is how good the free version of its software is. The load times are slightly slower, and you are still limited in credits, but that limit is pretty high. You will be able to get 20 to 30 videos generated before you near the end of your credit limit and there are ways to get more without having to sign up for a paid plan. However, on the free plan, your images and videos will have watermarks on them - something to keep in mind if you plan to use these videos commercially. Once you've made an account on Hailuai, you'll land on the homescreen. You should have roughly 1,000 credits at this point. Videos cost around 30 credits and images just 1. On the left hand side there are four ways to interact with the AI generation. For this particular activity, we want the 'create video' section. Here, you can choose to turn images into video, text to video or input your subject reference (an image of a person to edit). Most importantly here, you want to change your model at the bottom to T2V-01-Director to add the camera angles change. Then, by clicking the small camera in the bottom right corner, you'll be able to choose the camera angle style for your video. Once that's all selected, and you've put your prompt in, click the generate button in the bottom right. It will take a few minutes to generate but compared to other free video generators is actually quite fast. This isn't the best AI video generator on the market, but considering how good its free plan is (and then how affordable the paid plans are) its a great choice for those not wanting to fork out large amounts of money to generate a few videos. Hailuo offers all of the same features you'd see in leading models and, quite frankly, in some ways more. You can even ask Deepseek for assistance on your prompt directly from the Hailouai app. With such stiff competition in this market, Hailoai is keeping up surprisingly well with the likes of OpenAI and Gemini, even offering the ability to add sound (at the expense of more credits of course).

If you don't know about these video tools, you're already behind

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, AI is changing everything. And now, it's coming for video in a huge way. We're not just talking about deepfakes or filters anymore. This is next-level, movie-magic stuff. Enter to win $500 for you and $500 for your favorite person or charity in our Pay It Forward Sweepstakes. Hurry, ends soon! Let's talk about the wild part first. You don't need any editing software. You don't need a green screen. Heck, you don't even need a camera. Your keyboard is now the director, the producer, the editor, and your creative partner. All you have to do is type what you want to see, and boom, AI turns your words into high-def, studio-quality video clips. It's like having a Hollywood studio tucked inside your laptop. Two of the biggest names in this space right now are Sora from OpenAI and Veo from Google. And yes, you can actually try them both right now. I've tested them side by side, and you can watch my results at the end to see which one came out on top. Sora is built right into ChatGPT and is shockingly good. Type something simple like, "a golden retriever puppy playing on the beach with a tennis ball," and within seconds, Sora delivers a smooth, visually rich video clip. No stock footage. No need to mess with editing timelines or export settings. Just write what you want to see. Here's the breakdown: And here's a hot tip: Microsoft just announced that Sora is being integrated into their new Bing Video Creator, so you'll start seeing it pop up in more places soon. Now over to Google's Veo, and wow, this one is aiming for cinematic quality. Veo gives you up to 60-second videos in 1080p, and the realism is something else. You can include camera moves, lighting shifts, and smooth transitions, just by typing a sentence. For example: "A cat runs across a Paris rooftop at sunset." And it delivers exactly that, complete with lens flares and realistic shadows. To get your hands on Veo, you'll need to sign up for Google's Gemini plans: I wanted to see how each platform handled the same prompt, so I asked both to generate a video based on: "Show me a golden retriever puppy playing on the beach with a tennis ball." Now you can watch the videos side-by-side. My AI puppy Bella stars in both (Veo's on the left, Sora's on the right). My thoughts? Sora nailed the adorable close-up details, Bella's floppy ears, the texture of the fur, the light hitting the waves. But it fumbled a bit when it came to physics. The ball's bounce didn't feel quite right. On the other hand, Veo did a better job with the action. The puppy's movements were more lifelike but it wasn't as sharp on the visual details. We are entering a new age of video creation where your ideas are enough. No gear, no crew, no edits. Just imagination and a little typing. Whether you're a marketer, content creator, educator, or just someone who likes to experiment, this is the future of storytelling. Trust me, it's just getting started.
