This Wednesday, July 22, the controversial businessman published on his X account a short film of about three minutes generated with artificial intelligence by a user of that social network.
“Before the end of this year, Grok Imagine will make a feature film The Odyssey that will be historically accurate and faithful to the art of Homer“Musk wrote when sharing the images.
However, the proposal was not well received by all Internet users. The Mirror collected some reactions in which the fidelity of the production is questioned and even rejected.
“Historically accurate? You know it’s a mythological poem, right?” wrote one of them. “No, thanks. People want real actors. Use artificial intelligence to help humanity, not to entertain us“commented another user.
