This Is Probably Not the AI-Generated Version of “The Odyssey” That Elon Musk Was Imagining
Or in all likelihood, that *anyone* was imagining. The post This Is Probably Not the AI-Generated Version of “The Odyssey” That Elon Musk Was Imagining appeared first on Futurism .
Elon Musk has been fiercely critical of Christopher Nolan's adaptation of Homer's "The Odyssey", fearing it would fail at the box office. However, when the film surpassed one billion dollars in revenue, he vowed that his AI, Grok, would produce a faithful and historically accurate version of the epic before the end of the year. Unfortunately, this vision has not come to fruition.
Yet, there is a new kind of AI-generated content related to "The Odyssey". This time, the parody involves Vice President of the United States JD Vance, portrayed as a Cyclops who gets trapped with Odysseus and his men in a cave. Vance is depicted with a large single eye and engages in absurd antics, such as stuffing his men into a couch and consuming hot dog water.
The video also features Vance suffering from pink eye when Odysseus passes gas into a couch cushion he is resting on. In the video, Vance's colleagues Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel laugh at his suffering before downing bottles of whiskey. After Odysseus and his men escape on their boat, Vance's "father" appears in the storm clouds, angrily smiting them with lightning bolts.
The AI creator, "NostromoCore," has posted numerous videos mocking JD Vance, garnering hundreds of thousands of followers on social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.
