This is not the first time that Hollywood stars have become the subject of AI art. In April, against the backdrop of the holy month of Ramzan, an AI art series showing some of the most popular celebrities working in a busy food market went viral on Instagram. Created by AI art enthusiast Jyo John Mulloor (@jyo_john_mulloor), the series depicted celebrities like Keanu Reeves, Will Smith, and Tom Cruise, among others, working in a busy streetside open food market during the night.
