BBC's Blue Planet III keeps imperfect shots to prove its footage isn't AI
What happened
The Verge reported on October 25, 2026 that the BBC's Blue Planet III deliberately keeps imperfections like plankton and boats in frame to show the footage is real and not AI-generated. Executive producer Elizabeth White said shots once cut for poor water clarity or debris in frame were all kept this time. The series also shows dolphins using sponges to block holes while corralling fish, cross-species communication among fish, and 200,000 crabs feeding in formation.

BBC《蓝色星球 III》刻意保留浮游生物、船只等不完美画面，以证明素材真实、非 AI 生成。执行制片人 Elizabeth White 称，过去会因水质不佳或杂物入镜而剪掉的镜头这次全部保留。片中呈现海豚用海绵堵洞围捕鱼群、鱼类跨物种交流，以及 20 万只螃蟹列队觅食。
