The young man in the viral story, whose mother got a funny message on WhatsApp, spoke with Legit.ng in an exclusive chat where he explained how he felt the moment he saw the message.
He spoke about his reaction to the video and added that the individual who sent it must have believed it to be true. For him, however, it isn't, and he laughed it off.
His word:
"The moment I saw the video, it was really funny so I started laughing, so it dawned on me that for someone to have sent that, it means they believed it."
He also explained that his mother is aged and doesn't seem to know the difference between AI videos and the real ones yet, hence, she was a little confused when she got the message until he explained to her, and he has also been trying to teach her how to detect AI videos.
He added:
"So she called me first to help her confirm the information."
"She was caught in between because she's a 60 plus woman and I am really taking my time to teach her and my dad to detect AI videos."
On how often his mother receives messages on WhatsApp, he shared:
"Yes, especially where the platform that the message is being sent is one they are involved in, no large number and it is full of people they know, of course they believe because this person they know sent it."
