Grok Imagine released a three-minute AI-generated short film depicting the classic epic "The Odyssey". Elon Musk promised that the tool would eventually produce a complete, feature-length version of the story created entirely by artificial intelligence.

"Before this year ends, Imagine will make a full-length movie of The Odyssey that is historically accurate and true to the art of Homer," Musk said. The billionaire criticized the upcoming film before its official release, specifically targeting the casting choices for key roles.
