Elon Musk said Grok would make a ‘historically accurate’ movie version of The Odyssey and was mocked all the way back to the Bronze Age
We haven’t seen Christopher Nolan’s epic movie adaptation of The Odyssey yet but by all accounts it’s an absolute corker.
No, we’ve decided to wait until Elon Musk’s AI tool – and we really do mean tool – Grok comes up with its own feature length version, as promised by none other than Elon Musk himself.
He was inspired by this 3 minute clip someone came up with …
Dialogue scene from Homer's Odyssey built on Grok Imagine.

… to promise this.
Before this year ends, Grok Imagine will make a full-length movie of The Odyssey that is historically accurate and true to the art of Homer https://t.co/bVHzUmY9WN

And we’re glad he did, in a way, because he was mocked so hard he ended up in the Bronze Age. Can only hope he stays there.

Lol. He is beyond parody at this point.
Also, "historically accurate"? It's a work of fiction featuring imaginary Greek gods. https://t.co/vGIOfMtSRW

Thank goodness the Cyclops, pig soldiers, and sirens will now be historically accurate. https://t.co/iWYPKcdrL3

It’s very important to note here that he did not say it was going to be good

“True to the art of Homer” and it’s an AI slopfest. Christopher Nolan really broke Elon’s brain with this one. pic.twitter.com/KXt1cKJ9Ry

This is a great way to ensure the left dominates culture forever. The average person hates AI. Especially AI video. Associating your culture war with it is dumb. No matter how good the tech gets, prestige media will be human. You have a gazillion dollars, fund a studio. https://t.co/qyMZG02W67

Good news: another thing we can add to the list of Musk promises that he totally forgets about and never mentions again after his current stimulant episode ends https://t.co/d4tMdsI94i

Historically accurate? You’re aware it’s a mythological poem, right?

Just in case people still didn’t get it …
“Historically accurate.” There is a cyclops.
