I’m willing to bet this is 100% AI

100% not AI. Very real. There’s even a promotional video for this event: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMCqrtGKGLY www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UwedT-aoLg&t=51 www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xoZexpUHhY&t=10

Other ways to look at to get a sense it’s worth looking into more (I hate that I had to take this extra step)

The camels are actually the central focus, this is a camel race in Egypt with a ton of dickbags driving all around it to watch. So the camels are setting the pace. Farther out cars are just getting ahead, probably to get a better angle and because there’s less of a crush of others there.

Second, that people pay to do this cntravellerme.com/…/off-roading-alongside-egypts-…

Yeah, all Toyotas, that’s normal for the Middle East. I’m surprised there’s not more of the luxury Land Cruisers, but that’s about it. The only other brand I would expect to see out there would be a Nissan Patrol. There’s actually a (irony of ironies) a VW Touraeg (maybe it’s just a Tiguan) right at the start. That’s a weird outlier - weird enough that no AI would only do one of them and not spread a bunch out in the group.

The blaze sticker is the stock-standard Hilux pickup door sticker, and it’s done the same every time. No people disappear from the backs of trucks. There’s accurate consistency.

Green Land Cruiser pickup at the front of the race has a group that seems to be more important, and is dangerously close to the lead camels, which sounds about right. Probably some Minister of Tourism or something like that. That car paces the lead camels pretty well.

About lack of dust - yeah, it’s the desert. Sandy areas like river beds would be larger sand granules, closer to the beach. Dirt roads = dust because water and wind hasn’t washed the fine particles away over centuries of time. River beds/dunes/beaches = no dust because it’s all gone.

Thank you for the well written, comprehensive explaination of what is going on here about something i have not interest whatsoever.
