Overview
- Early Saturday, Musk posted a Grok Imagine video of an AI-generated woman saying “I will always love you,” timestamped 4:20 a.m. EST.
- The video used an obviously synthetic voice and was met with derision on X, with users calling it “the saddest post in the history of this website” and “the most divorced post of all time.”
- About 24 minutes later, he shared another Grok-generated clip depicting Sydney Sweeney saying “You are so cringe” in an artificial voice.
- The timing drew added attention because the posts followed Tesla shareholders’ approval of a compensation package that could be worth up to $1 trillion.
- Author Joyce Carol Oates criticized Musk’s online persona, and Musk replied on X that she is “a liar” who “delights in being mean.”
