In the video, the Instagram head also showcases how he was able to change outfits, backdrop, and where he looked like a Muppet-inspired character. The transition within the video looked quite impressive and seamless. However, it was quite easier to identify AI editing, since the content looked cartoony.

It was further highlighted that the edits could be made with text prompts, similar to any other AI video generation tools.
