Images of Elon Musk kissing a "dream woman" with "characteristics not found in normal person" has gone viral – but the images are not quite what they first seem.
Daniel Marven, CEO of KESharp Co, shared "photos" of the billionaire tech mogul appearing to kissing a female humanoid named Catnilla.
But it turns out the images have, in an apt twist, being generated through artificial intelligence.

Marven stated that Elon could be seen with his "future wife" in the AI generated images with the kind of "personality and characteristics that he dreams of".
He confirmed that operates through "solar energy" without charging and is equipped with sensory options that can make her feel emotions – sad or happy.
The robotic humanoid is said to have a balanced and interactive mindset and is capable of alerting if she is in a crisis or experiencing any sort of need or psychological stress.
The news comes after Tesla unveiled its first Optimus humanoid robot at its AI Day back in September last year, which would cost less than $20,000 in the market.
The event witnessed two prototypes being unveiled, the first being Bumble C.
It is the first version of the bot and it was developed with “semi-off-the-shelves” actuators and served as a testing bed for Tesla’s first robot developed with in-house parts.
However, Tesla presented the first generation Optimus robot after the Bumble C demonstration.
The specific features of Optimus included a 2.3 kWh battery pack, which the automaker claims should be good for about a day’s worth of work.
Though both versions couldn't do much on the stage apart from waving to the crowd and had to be carried back by the employees.
There is growing recognition and awareness that the potential impact of AI on humanity in the near future needs to be carefully considered.

Recently, the AI images of "ideal" men and women were produced using engagement analytics on social media data.
Though the findings were monitored by The Bulimia Project, an eating disorder awareness group – they warned that the images were "largely unrealistic" in depictions of body types.
"Considering that social media uses algorithms based on which content gets the most lingering eyes, it's easy to guess why AI's renderings would come out more sexualised,” The Bulimia Project said.
"But we can only assume that the reason AI came up with so many oddly shaped versions of the physiques it found on social media is that these platforms promote unrealistic body types, to begin with."
