Elon Musk unveils AI-generated fashion show featuring global leaders
Tech billionaire Elon Musk caused a stir on Monday by posting an AI-generated video featuring prominent world leaders in futuristic attire.
"It's time for an AI fashion show," Musk, the CEO of X, SpaceX, and Tesla, announced on X alongside the video.
The video features an eclectic runway show with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, U.S. President Joe Biden, former U.S. Presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama, among others, donning avant-garde outfits.
PM Modi struts the runway in chic sunglasses, white shoes, and a vibrant patchwork ensemble, while Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin sport Louis Vuitton suits.
Biden is depicted in a wheelchair, and Musk himself makes an appearance dressed as a superhero in a Tesla and X-themed outfit.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is shown wearing a sweatshirt and a striking gold necklace.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in a dress, and Apple CEO Tim Cook with an iPad also make appearances. Chinese President Xi Jinping is depicted carrying a purse.
Musk's video has garnered significant attention and sparked discussions across social media platforms.
Meanwhile, Musk engaged in a dialogue on X with Indian-origin tech entrepreneur Vinod Khosla, a prominent donor to the Democratic Party.
Following U.S. President Joe Biden's announcement that he will not seek re-election in the upcoming November election, Khosla called for an "open convention" to select a more moderate Democratic candidate.
Khosla tweeted, "Time to have an open convention and get a more moderate candidate who can easily beat @realDonaldTrump. @GovWhitmer and @GovernorShapiro would be a great thing for America not held hostage between MAGA extremists and DEI extremism.
Unique opportunity for a better moderate path. Every socially liberal, climate and fiscal voter should want it to balance our approach."
Musk responded, "Come on, Vinod. Trump/Vance LFG!!"
Khosla replied, "Hard for me to support someone with no values, lies, cheats, rapes, demeans women, hates immigrants like me. He may cut my taxes or reduce some regulation but that is no reason to accept depravity in his personal values. Do you want a President who will set back the climate by a decade in his first year? Do you want his example for your kids as values?"
