Pages and accounts on social media circulated an image that was said to show the marriage of the American billionaire, Elon Musk, to a robot woman whose senses were developed with artificial intelligence. However, this claim is from the imagination of its publishers, and the image is the result of an artificial intelligence program.

And the picture shows Musk, the second richest man in the world, CEO of “Tesla” for electric cars, the social network “Twitter” and the company “SpaceX” for space exploration, as he kisses what appears to be a robot in the form of a woman.

“Elon Musk announces his marriage to a robot,” said the accompanying comments on Facebook and Twitter.

The publication added that this robotic woman is “equipped with sensory means that make her feel sad and happy.”

The post attracted thousands of posts and tens of thousands of interactions on social media.

Unreal picture

But this claim is a fantasy of its promoters.

As for the image, it is not real, but is generated by artificial intelligence.

A search for her on social media indicated that she was posted on an Instagram account dealing with visual artwork.
