As promised by billionaire Elon Musk, the artificial intelligence Grok , widely used on X (formerly Twitter), published the first episode of a "historically accurate" series of The Odyssey
The whole situation began when the billionaire decided to contest Christopher Nolan's version, mainly due to the casting of actresses like Lupita Nyong'o and Zendaya, as well as the involvement of Elliot Page in the production.
At the time, the executive promised to deliver a version "faithful to Homer's tale" and, to that end, used Grok Imagine, the company's video creation tool.
The comments on the post that revealed the chapter of the production made with Musk's technology are not very friendly. "Complaining and crying about historical accuracy just to make Greece look like Scotland," says one of the comments about the production.
