THE INTERNET fraternity is amazed due to the seemingly-real images of Elon Musk in an Indian wedding and Superheroes from Marvel's Avengers universe hitting the streets of India to interact with their fans. These fascinating images have got social media users on Instagram excited because of their attention to detail which can deceive a viewer into concluding that they are real at first sight. However, we will have to break the ice and tell you that these are not real and are AI-generated.
Let's look at the AI-generated superheroes first. A user (wild.trance) shared images of superheroes ranging from Spider-Man, Thor, Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, Hulk, Black Panther, Captain America, Loki and Ant-Man.
"In this captivating AI-generated artwork, we envision a delightful scenario where the iconic Marvel Avengers find themselves in the heart of India, connecting with its vibrant culture and people. The artwork captures the spirit of unity, diversity, and the universal love for superheroes," the user wrote on the Meta-owned platform. Since upload, the post has garnered 300+ likes on the photo-sharing platform.

In the next instance, the Instagram account - rolling_canvas_ shared AI-produced images of Elon Musk enjoying an Indian-style wedding.
"From the times when we used to paint our imagination on paper to now, when we can convey our ideas to computers/AI and it brings them to reality. Fascinated to be alive at these times and be part of a possible transition. Not sure if it's for good or bad, but it's happening. World is changing and it's changing fast," the post adds.

In the first photo, the AI replica of the Twitter boss is visible with a pair of sunglasses and an ethnic outfit that has enough realism to trick a fast-scrolling user. In another photo, Musk can be seen on horseback donning an Indian Sherwani. While the details on the Tesla CEO's face are impressive, the Horse is clearly visible as an AI creation. A reader must note these images were created by Midjourney image creation tool.
These are not the first instances of AI images going viral on the Internet. Midjourney was used to create AI versions of Mark Zuckerberg in a fashion show doing a ramp walk.
