This year’s Met Gala was a rather sullen affair. To spice things up, fans started generating artificial intelligence-made photos of stars on the red carpet, and Katy Perry‘s AI-generated pictures from fashion’s biggest night went viral.
Though the singer didn’t actually attend the event, falsely made pictures of her stunning at the gala were shared by thousands of people on social media. Here are the best fan reactions.
AI Imagines Katy Perry At The Met Gala Leaving Fans Utterly Confused
AI is truly getting out of hand as it fooled thousands of people into believing that Katy Perry donning a ravishing green dress, with a steely corset and a skirt made of leaves and flowers was actually her attending the Met Gala. As fans freaked out about the outfit, many rightfully pointed out that it was, in fact, generated by AI.
