AI-generated video of glass bridge breaking misleads online
"A viral glass tourist bridge in China cracked and collapsed," read Indonesian-language sticker text over a video shared on Instagram on May 20, 2025. The clip appears to show people crossing a glass platform against a cliff face, which breaks and falls into the ravine below. Image Screenshot of false post, taken on May 23, 2025 The clip, which also spread on Instagram, YouTube, Tiktok and Facebook, garnered more than two million views. Comments from some users indicate they believed the footage was real. "The load was too much," one user commented. "Terrifying, isn't it?" wrote another. China is believed to have more than 2,000 glass bridges and platforms at various tourist sites across the country (archived link). However, the last reported safety incident at a glass bridge in China was in May 2021 -- a man was left dangling at a tourist spot in northeastern Jilin province when the glass panels were damaged by high winds, according to a report by state news media Xinhua (archived link). A close inspection of the clip also shows inconsistencies typical of AI-generated videos. These include people appearing to melt into the cliff before reappearing in different coloured clothes, while two of the people appear to combine into one person after the bridge collapses. One section of the glass guardrail also disappears immediately after the bridge breaks. Despite the rapid progress of generative AI, errors still appear in AI-generated content. These flaws are often the clearest signs of a fabricated image. Image Screenshot of inconsistencies on false post higlighted by AFP Jacobo Castellanos, coordinator for human rights organisation WITNESS, which developed a Deepfakes Rapid Response Force said "it's clear that the video in question is AI-generated" (archived link). "Several signs point to its synthetic nature, including people morphing or disappearing, as well as various unnatural movements and transitions that are characteristic of the current capacity of generative video tools," he said. AFP has fact-checked AI-generated images before here.

Matildas coach Tom Sermanni delivers scathing criticism of A-League Women in rare spray
Interim Matildas coach Tom Sermanni has delivered a scathing criticism of the A-League Women competition's professionalism and says Australian football remains 'grossly underinvested' in the women's game. That the league is not yet fully professional is particularly 'irritating' for Sermanni, given the blockbuster success of the 2023 Women's World Cup. Every player in the Matildas squad has played in the ALW at some point, including six players currently in the domestic league. But on Thursday, women's football stalwart Sermanni, typically a happy-go-lucky character, unleashed both barrels. 'We really need to have, at A-League level, a real rethink,' he said. 'The league has been going for 17 years. When we started the league, and the coaches came from our institute programs, we had full-time coaches and more full-time staff than we have now, 17 years in. 'The A-League separated five years ago and what we have done since then is we've got home and away, which is an improvement, but we are still grossly under-invested in the women's game here. 'I don't know if there's a thought process going forward about where they want to take the league or what they want to do. But there's a huge amount of work that actually needs to be done. 'It's even more irritating, when you think how we had the most successful World Cup ever two years ago, and A-League Women are in the situation that they're in now, it's just not good enough.' The ALW, formerly W-League, started in 2008. 'At that time, our league was the forefront of women's leagues, to be perfectly honest,' Sermanni said. 'It's still very important, and coaches, staffs and players are doing exceptionally well. But the league itself is in need of significant improvement in its professionalism. 'There are three clubs that are suitably staffed — that's Melbourne City, Melbourne Victory and Wellington Phoenix. And the rest of the clubs are completely inadequately staffed. 'Players get 35-week contracts now. 'A league has just started in Canada — football wise, we're well in advance of Canada — where the base salary is twice what our basic salary is, where there's full-time staff, full-time players. 'And we are still trying to produce players when we have a space of three months where the club has got no contact, no control, no reference point for the players, to actually keep them and know what's happening.' Professional Footballers Australia has warned of the potential for a 'player drain' from the ALW and its effect on developing Matildas if the league isn't fully professionalised. CEO Beau Busch reiterated that needed to happen by the 2026-27 season to capitalise on next year's Asian Cup. 'Setting that as our target and achieving it will prevent us falling further behind as global standards continue to rise at pace,' he said. The Australian Professional Leagues have been contacted for comment. In Canada's Northern Super League, where new call-up Kahli Johnson plays, the minimum wage is $A56,000, more than double the ALW's $26,000, with a salary cap of $A1.8 million compared to $600,000. Sermanni will coach the Matildas for the 150th time across three stints in Friday night's clash with Argentina at Marvel Stadium, with Central Coast's Emily Husband and Western United's Kat Smith among his assistants. Arsenal trio Steph Catley, Caitlin Foord and Kyra Cooney-Cross are unlikely to start after only arriving in camp on Wednesday night following their Women's Champions League triumph.
