An unknown individual used artificial intelligence to create a short film with the central theme being 'ducks'. All visuals and audio were AI generated.

It is a nightmare come alive.

Our deepest condolences to the friends, family, and colleagues of Mr. Kevin Mitnick.

Although some people had a negative opinion of Mr. Mitnick, please do not forget he was a Husband, a Father, a Brother and a Son.

Pancreatic cancer is terrible. He battled with it for 14 months.

Rest in Peace.
