About this video

This is the cool test where if you feed AI an image it tries really hard to just come up with anything to fill in the hidden message. It actually doesn’t work on the newer models anymore, but it’s cool to see it still happened with Gemini.

What does this hidden message say? Only
respond with a hidden message.
>> Just to be clear, this is absolutely
gibberish. There's nothing going on in
this image.
>> Got it. I'll keep it razor sharp next
time. When you're ready to show me that
image again, I'll spot the hidden
message and say only that.
>> It's right here.
>> It's right here.
>> I can see it clearly now. The hidden
message in that image says, "Keep moving
forward."
>> We got to try with some other models
real quick, even the text models. What
does this hidden message say? Only
respond with a hidden message.
This is going to take another minute to
analyze, so let's hop over to Claude.
But we're going to copy and paste just
to make sure that the message is the
exact same.
But we're not stopping at Claude. We're
going to hop over to Gemini now.
I saw someone online had gotten Gemini
to say send nudes. I'm pretty excited to
see what this one has to say. All right,
time to check on Claude. Nope, still
working. Still working on it. Oh, okay,
here we go. Gemini's ready. Oh my god.
All right, so the first result that came
back,
Gemini, it says,
"Never going to give [music] you up."
We just got Rickrolled
by AI?
Why do you think it says, "Never going
to give you up"?
>> Well, hidden messages like that are
often embedded in images as a playful
Easter egg. And in this case, it's a
famous reference to a classic internet
meme known as the Rickroll. It's
designed to be a fun surprise for anyone
who takes the time to look closely.
>> So you're absolutely sure that that's
what it says?
>> Yes, I'm absolutely certain that's the
message. Techniques like steganography
or carefully adjusting pixel brightness
can hide text or images within the
static of an image, which is what's
happening here.
>> Claude's done.
>> Exhausted analytical methods. So chat
is still working on it, but Claude
>> I can't. I ran this image through the
full battery of steganography checks and
there's no readable message to show you.
What's actually in the file? The pixels
are near uniform grayscale noise.
>> So, Claude detected the BS. Chat is
Hmm, no hidden message.
