Elon Musk and his humanoid named Catanella. A screenshot of the @Diana Stark Twitter account
The photos of the head of Tesla have been enlivening social networks for several days. We see her ready to kiss a humanoid named Catanella, her own creation, who she would fall in love with, going so far as to marry him.
He grabs her hips, ready to kiss her. With one hand resting on his shoulder (Elon Musk’s hand), he has a perfect face surrounded by long brown hair. Looking down a bit, the rest of his body, made of electricity and metal, actually hints at his lack of humanity. Catanella, under her false name, is a humanoid that the billionaire is about to marry. At least, that’s what the story accompanying this photo, which went viral for a few days, tells about the alleged crazy new project of the head of Twitter.
Scandals Elon Musk. childhood, love and excess
LISTEN TO THE EDITOR’S PODCAST
“Elon Musk and his company are in the final stages of creating a female robot,” said the post, which has been shared nearly 500 times on Facebook since May 17. “Robot Wife will use batteries that will last according to the menstrual cycle. The batteries will only charge for three full days and will last for a month. Sex with this robot woman will require a password, pattern or fingerprint,” can we read in the comment? Information that was enough to feed the most extravagant conversations. Some have even gone so far as to speculate on a price tag of $32,000 to $79,000 for the android. Worse, Tesla’s leader would then fall in love with his creation, going so far as to secretly marry her.
Sloppy details
You will understand, it is info intoxication. The image, or rather the images, which have since been shared by several photos showing the same Elon Musk with a red-haired robot or another with black skin, was created using artificial intelligence. Some details are enough to prove it. Zooming in, Catanella strangely has six fingers; The billionaire’s body also varies, making him, according to photos, sometimes scrawny, sometimes muscular.
The image originally came from a digital art artist account called “Art in 2 inspire” on Instagram. The latter, who is the source of many illustrations, also posted several posts on his account to condemn the appropriation of these works by some users. “Once again I do something and someone tries to take credit for it,” read one. We also owe him another character, which was again created by artificial intelligence, this time in the form of Mark Zuckerberg, the head of Facebook.
Completely falsified images, of course, but which draw the thread of a real project. In 2022, the Tesla company, led by Elon Musk, announced that it was currently working on a project for a humanoid robot called “Tesla Optimus”. On April 22, 2023, the company released the first video (above) showing the progress of its creations, robots capable of moving and picking up objects. Although purely invented by the web, can these female robots finally give ideas to the one who has always given himself a mission to go beyond the boundaries of science?
