- Donald Trump posted a wave of AI portraits on his Truth Social platform over the weekend.
- Analysts said the images depicted him variously as a fearless hockey player, a space rescuer and a character from dark cyberpunk science fiction.
Donald Trump’s latest burst of AI-generated portraits on Truth Social sought to outdo everything his followers had grown accustomed to, according to the article.
The U.S. president appeared in a series of wildly different roles, including an unconquerable hockey player, a savior of outer space and a character from dark cyberpunk science fiction.
Analysts described the visual collection as a cocktail of detachment from reality, militaristic dystopia and total self-adoration. The weekend posts turned Trump’s social-media feed into a stream of images built around increasingly fantastical versions of his public persona.
