Elon Musk’s AI Odyssey review – the dullest, most pointless riposte possible to Christopher Nolan’s brilliant epic
Do you remember when Elon Musk, in a weird online tantrum, and without having seen the film, condemned the supposed wokery in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, for getting Elliot Page to play Sinon and Lupita Nyong’o to play Helen of Troy?
- He petulantly exclaimed that he could do his own better and more authentic Odyssey on Grok AI.
- The only surprise would be if Musk accepted defeat graciously.
- In Musk’s version, as the tale begins Odysseus is – off….
As the plaudits and the box-office receipts for Nolan’s Odyssey piled stratospherically up, Musk showed that being a good loser is not among his qualities.
And now he has released the first online seven-minute “episode” to a world that has long since forgotten about this claim and didn’t care in the first place.
- It is hardly a shock that Grok AI’s interpretation of Homer is as meaningless as a laptop screensaver.
