Spotted a fake Biden speech video that got 50k views before I found the tells

I was scrolling YouTube last night and paused on a video of Biden giving a speech about infrastructure. The audio was synced perfectly but the lighting on his face didn't match the shadows from the podium. Has anyone else noticed that deep fakes often mess up shadow consistency?

50,000 people watched that and nobody noticed the podium shadows looked like they were from a different time zone. Sounds about right for the average YouTube comment section.

Those same 50k missed the mic stands casting shadows straight through the wall too.
