What is happening here?

Citizens.

These two stills are from a Facebook video reel. The whole thing (10 seconds) can be seen here https://www.facebook.com/reel/1145652263666731

It purports to show two Renault FP tractors (one in the background, on the right), and some soldiers who might or might not be Belgian and/or French. What's disturbing is that on the left is a distinctly WWII tank.

I am deeply suspicious about this footage for other reasons. The focus is all over the place. The khaki soldiers in the foreground might well be late-War Belgian, but others look British or French. And the FP in the foreground behaves most oddly - as it moves across the screen, its tracks mutate into a set of bogies and seem to disappear.

Can anyone explain? Is this that Artificial Intelligence of which I hear so much and understand so little?

Ah. The video doesn't seem to be working. I'll try to find it elsewhere. But it's just 10 seconds of a Renault FP moving from right to left.

The comments under the first photo are in Dutch and state that the photo is colorized and then 'brought to life', which implies that the movement is indeed AI generated.
