It’s almost impossible not to have seen the AI-generated video shared by Trump on February 26 on the social media platform “X,” depicting a transformed Gaza as a luxurious tourist destination called “Trump Gaza,” featuring high-end hotels and extravagant scenes, including figures like Elon Musk.
Creating a video like Trump’s Gaza clip involves using multiple artificial intelligence tools for image generation, animation, and editing.
The futuristic landscapes and transformation of Gaza into a luxury tourist destination seen in the video are created using generative AI tools like MidJourney, which generates realistic images from text, and DALL·E 3 (OpenAI), ideal for detailed environments.
To bring static images to life and simulate dynamic transitions—such as buildings appearing out of nowhere, landscapes evolving, or characters moving within the scene—tools like Runway ML (Gen-2), which converts images into video, and Pika Labs, specialized in motion effects, are used.
If public figures like Elon Musk appear in unrealistic scenes, advanced AI tools such as DeepFaceLab, one of the most sophisticated deepfake technologies, or Synthesia, which creates hyper-realistic digital avatars, were likely used.
A video like Trump’s Gaza clip is not the result of a single tool but a combination of various AI technologies. If you want to create a similar video, experimenting with the tools mentioned above would be a good starting point.
