This is AI generated (source). I spent a while looking at the image trying to find the usual tells. It's kinda scary how hard it's getting to tell AI generated images apart from real ones. I'm sure with a powerful enough model, enough iterations, and the right prompt, it's almost impossible to tell in some cases.
What really throws me are their poses. They’re all in poses that you typically see them in from public sources. Elon smoking a cigar was probably part of the prompt, unless I’m unaware of something. Tim Apple even doing the classic stage pose.
It was actually Elon and the cigar that tipped me off. Can you imagine him possibly looking so natural and "cool" and masculine? He would be holding it so weird that everyone in the circle would be staring at him and he would be doing this really weird laugh while his shoulders turned into cursed parallelogram of flesh and too much bone.
Also, if it were real I would expect to see Peter Thiel's face pressed against the glass of the Cybertruck, looking out with bug eyes as he smears oil all over the window.
100%. He's way fatter, older, and awkward than that.
