YouTuber made an impressive AI clip based on Nolan's "The Odyssey" in the style of "Apocalypse Now" in Vietnamese jungles
Homer's Odyssey has been through countless adaptations over the millennia, but few expected the ancient Greek epic to end up trekking through the jungles of Vietnam.
YouTuber demonflyingfox released a musical AI video reimagining Nolan's film in a new setting.
Odysseus's wanderings turn into a soldier's journey to survive and make it home through the chaos of war. The ancient myths fit surprisingly well into the atmosphere of classic Vietnam war dramas in the vein of "Apocalypse Now."
The Cyclops becomes a one-eyed battlefield commander, Circe turns into a mysterious figure from a village surrounded by strange visions, and the Sirens become voices calling out through the rain.
At least two more AI-made Odyssey projects are on the way – one from Elon Musk and another from the startup Fountain 0.
