See some of my later replies. I've looked at it frame by frame and it looks exactly like the artifacts you'd see from motion interpolation. They can look very similar to AI artifacts.
Are you differentiating between AI Interpolation and just simply AI? It feels like people saying it's AI you push back on.
Yes. People seem to be saying this is not a real video and that the white house generated it with AI. That is what I would say it means to say the video "is AI" - particularly because an AI interpolated video is still a real video.
Whether the interpolation is done with AI or not, I don't know. AI interpolation is fairly common but there are older methods that produce similar artifacts. Based on some of the interpolated frames I'm leaning slightly towards it being AI interpolation but I don't know well enough to say.
