The headline-hitting billionaire Elon Musk appears to have an opinion on all the things—now together with artwork. The outspoken founding father of SpaceX and greatest buddy of President elect Donald Trump has taken to his personal social media platform, X, to share a sequence of well-known work delivered to life courtesy of synthetic intelligence (AI).
Displaying static scenes that morph right into a sequence of bizarre rolling panoramas with animated figures, the video was initially created by consumer @dvorahfr. The AI creator is presumably a fan of Trump’s newly appointed effectivity tsar, having lately posted “Every day on X is sort of a dream !”.
Musk’s publish presents souped-up AI variations of Le Désespéré (The Determined Man, 1843-45) by Gustave Courbet, Napoleon Crossing the Alps by Jacques-Louis David (1803) and The Wanderer above the Sea of Fog (1818) by Caspar David Friedrich. Gustave Caillebotte’s L’Homme au balcon (1880), which reveals a sublime gent surveying Boulevard Haussmann in Paris from on excessive, can be remodeled. However one eagle-eyed observer noticed a really fashionable addition on this picture—a Twenty first-century car passing on the highway beneath.
“AI can be unbelievable,” Musk writes alongside the sequence of shifting photographs. Maybe not fairly as unbelievable as he hopes.
