AI Video Recreates Billy Joel as a Young 'Waxy Corpse'

1 articles · Updated · The A.V. Club · Aug 13

Summary

  • A YouTube-posted AI rendering imagines a younger Billy Joel, with the report describing the result as a "waxy, computer-generated corpse."
  • The piece frames the clip as a niche example of generative AI use, contrasting it with more commonly touted promises such as practical advice tools or image manipulation.
  • Billy Joel is the clear subject of the recreation, but the report focuses less on any response from him than on mocking the technology's odd, intrusive applications.
