A new social media phenomenon is taking over Paraguay: videos generated by artificial intelligence (AI) that place people in the stands of packed stadiums, as if they were being filmed by sports broadcast cameras. The trend, already captivating users on TikTok and Instagram, has arrived in the country with a local twist — users appear wearing the Albirroja jersey.
The process is simple: just a selfie and free or trial apps. The image is sent to ChatGPT or an AI photo generator, using a prompt that transforms it into a hyper-realistic sports scene. Then, the result is converted into video by apps like Kling AI or Glam AI, and edited in CapCut with broadcast sounds and effects. The most used viral prompt requests a “hyper-realistic live sports broadcast image,” with the person sitting in the stands of a packed stadium during a baseball game.
Meanwhile, in real life, the Jockey Club Paraguay hosted the show of the American band Korn last weekend, which returned to the country after 13 years. The performance, held at the Jockey Club Paraguayo, featured opening acts by the bands Nhandei Zha, Seven Hours After Violet, and Spiritbox. Lead singer Jonathan Davis greeted the crowd with the classic “Are you ready?”, and the band played hits such as “Somebody Someone,” “Shoots and Ladders,” and “Freak On A Leash.”
The show brought together thousands of fans, including Cristina Irala, Noemí Cáceres, Gisella Mendoza, Johana Galeano, Eduardo Vester, Lizzi Becker, Álvaro González, Walter Cabrera, Yushara Vázquez, and Basstian Cáceres, who were caught by the event's cameras.
