‘That's Not Human’. Of course it’s not, it’s AI!

In this widely circulated audio clip, a North Carolina man reports an unknown, pale humanoid entity leaping into the bed of his pickup truck. The caller describes the figure as unnerving and larger than his vehicle. The 911 call was abruptly cut off after a loud noise, heightening the eerie tone. The AI audio detector found the clip to be 91% AI-generated, suggesting significant synthetic edits or partial reconstruction of the original call.

The Pender County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the call’s authenticity and date but clarified no video or physical evidence was obtained related to the incident. Follow-up investigations including drone searches found no trace of the object or figure reported. The episode has sparked much speculation, drawing on folklore topics such as skinwalkers from Navajo legends. However, the truth might lie much closer. Sometimes you just need the detector.
