Elon Musk has commented on some artificial intelligence (AI) pictures of him and fellow billionaire Mark Zuckerberg having a pretty realistic beach rendezvous.
The images were shared on Twitter this week, and we can’t get over how happy they look.

It comes after a rigorous training session for the much anticipated bout between Musk and Zuckerberg, during which Mark Zuckerberg was photographed with UFC fighters.
Despite there being no official date for the highly anticipated fight, it is clear that the two tech billionaires are taking it very seriously because Musk has also been showing up to training sessions.
However, Musk admitted that he needed “a lot more training,” after a few hard sessions with St. Pierre, who is regarded as one of the greatest fighters in MMA history.
“Really fun! The obvious conclusion is that I need a lot more training,” Musk remarked in response to a photo of himself with martial arts trainer John Danaher and combat expert Lex Fridman.

It was reported earlier this month that Twitter is threatening to sue Meta’s new app Threads.
Thanks to the integration with Instagram, which made it incredibly easy for their billions of users to join up, Meta’s new app attracted millions of users in its first few weeks after its release.
Twitter’s attorney, Alex Spiro, sent a letter to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg outlining the company’s plans to litigate.
It accuses Meta of hiring Twitter employees who “had and continue to have access to Twitter’s trade secrets and other highly confidential information.”
“Twitter intends to strictly enforce its intellectual property rights, and demands that Meta take immediate steps to stop using any Twitter trade secrets or other highly confidential information,” Spiro wrote.

“Twitter reserves all rights, including, but not limited to, the right to seek both civil remedies and injunctive relief without further notice.”
US copyright law protects intellectual property but not ideas, so for Twitter to prevail in court, they would need to show that, for instance, computer code was stolen.
Andy Stone, a spokesperson for Meta, said in a Threads post: “No one on the Threads engineering team is a former Twitter employee — that’s just not a thing.”
Since Musk’s takeover, Twitter has declared 80% of its personnel redundant, cutting off 7,500 workers since last October.
Although Linda Yaccarino took over Elon Musk’s position as CEO of Twitter last month, he has replied on the social media platform to reports of threats of legal action.
“Competition is fine, cheating is not,” he wrote.

And now, one Twitter user has created some fresh AI-generated graphics that make things appear peaceful despite the turbulent relationship between Zuck and Musk.
The caption for the collection of images was “The good ending,” according to user @dogeofficialceo.
Musk eventually noticed the pictures after they had over 145,000 likes and 8 million views, and he even replied to the tweet with an emoji of a crying laughing face.
Dozens have shared their thoughts of the pics online, with one joking: “This took longer than I expected but I’m so glad to see it.”
While another said: “The lizard king and tyrant of Twitter look so cute together. They look like they are in love lol.”
What do you make of the pictures?
