We\u2019re sure AI will be used to cure cancer or solve climate change any day now. In the meantime, its adherents are mostly using the astonishingly expensive tech to churn out loads of slop. <\/p>\n
It doesn\u2019t get any more embarrassing than one of the latest trend making waves through AI circles. With the release of Google\u2019s new video generating AI Nano Banana Pro, dorky nerds the world over are using the AI tool to make it look like they\u2019re chummy with loads of cool and famous people \u2014 a perfect encapsulation of their desperation to be accepted by the artists they love, and the culture at large.<\/p>\n
One video<\/a> generated by a man purporting to be a filmmaker shows himself walking around an increasingly incomprehensible film set taking selfies with AI lookalikes of Hollywood celebrities ranging from Will Smith to Jack Nicholson to Tom Hardy to Uma Thurman to Clint Eastwood to Marlon Brando.<\/p>\n In another celebrity selfie video<\/a>, a man walks around a greenscreen room and meets up with famous actors dressed up as \u201cDragon Ball Z\u201d characters. Ever desire to see epic stuff like Dwayne \u201cThe Rock\u201d Johnson as Majin Buu, Brad Pitt as Goku, or Timoth\u00e9e\u00a0Chalamet as Trunks? Better yet, with you standing next to them, arm around their shoulders? Well, there you have it.<\/p>\n DRAGON BALL Z \u2013 LIVE ACTION<\/p>\n We\u2019re on a roll lately\u2026 +8 MILLION views in 1 day with this video \ud83d\ude31<\/p>\n This trend is going super viral and a lot of people are making their own version. Hope you like mine \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Oh! And as always\u2026 TUTORIAL \ud83d\udc47\ud83c\udffb\ud83e\uddf5 pic.twitter.com\/zoJU63STLT<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Pablo Prompt (@pabloprompt) December 15, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Google officially released Nano Banana Pro for its Gemini chatbot last month, and fans quickly noticed that it was absolutely stellar at generating fake smartphone photos<\/a>, including faces. Soon, someone made a post showing how they were able to generate eerily life-like selfies with celebrities and the prompts they used, and it quickly went viral on Reddit<\/a> and Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n Another post, titled<\/a> \u201cI met many celebs,\u201d is some of the most upvoted content on the Gemini subreddit. It isn\u2019t always received well, though. A now-deleted stab at the selfie trend was shouted down by commenters<\/a> calling it \u201cweird\u201d and \u201ccreepy\u201d \u2014 so not even some AI obsessives are on board with fabricating reality and stealing people\u2019s faces without permission.<\/p>\n More on AI: People Are Already Creating Ghoulishly Horrifying Sora Disney Videos<\/a><\/p>\n \t
