arXiv:2510.08073v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: AI-generated videos have achieved near-perfect visual realism (e.g., Sora), urgently necessitating reliable detection mechanisms. However, detecting such videos faces significant challenges in modeling high-dimensional spatiotemporal dynamics and identifying subtle anomalies that violate physical laws. In this paper, we propose the first physics-driven AI-generated video detection paradigm based on probability flow conservation principles. Specifically, we propose a statistic called Normalized Spatiotemporal Gradient (NSG), which quanti
The rapid advancement of AI-generated video realism (e.g., Sora) necessitates immediate and robust countermeasures for detection and authentication.
Reliable detection mechanisms for AI-generated video are crucial for combating misinformation, maintaining trust in visual media, and ensuring digital authenticity across various sectors.
The introduction of physics-driven methods offers a new, potentially more robust paradigm for identifying synthetic videos, shifting detection from purely statistical to principle-based approaches.

Improved detection tools will make it harder to create and disseminate convincing AI-generated misinformation.
This could lead to an 'arms race' where generative AI models evolve to better simulate physics, or detection methods become more advanced.
The development of 'physics-aware' generative AI could emerge, aimed at producing undetectable synthetic media, leading to further trust erosion.
