AI-Made Elon Musk Baby Image

The adorable image, which showcases Musk's distinctive features superimposed onto an adorable cherubic face, was shared on Twitter by user @alifarhat79, who goes by Not Jerome Powell. The tweet quickly gained traction, accumulating impressive likes, retweets, and comments. It amassed a staggering 4.1 million views, more than 56,000 likes, and over 3,000 Retweets. In other words, it instantly went viral.

The viral post comes with a witty caption. It parodies news outlets reporting new information about a news event on social media. It reads: "BREAKING: Elon Musk was reportedly working on some anti-aging formula, but it got way out of hand."

Our friends from Tech Times note that baby Elon flaunts a sleek look as he wears brown dungarees and long white sleeves in the AI-generated image. It is still being determined if the baby image was generated using the viral generative platform Dall-E. It enables its users to create AI-made images based on mere prompts.

As the adorable AI-generated image instantly went viral across various social media platforms, people could not help but wonder: How did the Twitter boss react?

Fortunately, the Twitter boss did not keep us waiting for long. The billionaire entrepreneur, who owns tech giants like Tesla, SpaceX, and, more recently, Twitter, is fond of responding to tweets about him on the social network. And with his viral baby image spreading like wildfire, he could not help but join the hilarious discussion.

Musk responds directly to the viral post. He quipped, "I think I maybe took too much," attached with a baby emoji.

The Twitter user, Not Jerome Powell, bantered with the wealthiest man in the world, telling Musk that he now has "enough time to get to Mars."

For context, according to CNET, the SpaceX founder introduced his ambitious plan to start civilization on the Red Planet. To kick off his vision, he hoped to lift off the first-ever crewed mission on our neighbor planet as early as 2024.

But later, he realized that the timeline needed to be more ambitious and far from reality. So he announced last March 2022 that he aims to land humans on Mars by 2029.

In the meantime, his space exploration firm SpaceX is working on a spacecraft called Starship, which seeks to land astronauts on the moon for NASA once again. Moving forward, it plans to do the same for the Red Planet.
