Elon Musk reacts to Nicki Minaj’s Grok Chibi avatar
Elon Musk is loving an anime-style avatar of Nicki Minaj, created using Grok AI Imagine. It is an advanced AI tool developed by Musk’s company, xAI, that transforms text prompts and images into high-quality visuals.
Elon Musk has been promoting Grok AI’s Imagine tool, encouraging users to try out the Chibi portrait style. The response has been huge, with several users, including accounts associated with Donald Trump, generating and sharing their own Chibi-style self-portraits on X/Twitter.
For those unversed, Chibi is a Japanese anime and manga style characterized by cute, childlike characters with features like plump cheeks and puppy eyes. The term itself is Japanese slang for a small child or a short person. It originates from chibi kyara, which means tiny character.
Recently, Nicki Minaj has jumped onto the bandwagon, sharing a Grok Chibi character of herself on X. The AI-generated image, part of the Gag City trend celebrating Minaj’s album Pink Friday 2, features celebrity cameos and a pink Barbiecore aesthetic.
The adorable image has triggered reactions from fans and celebrities alike, with Elon Musk even reposting it and calling it cute. Additionally, one fan gushed, “Adorable,” while another joked, “But mine’s more cute.” “She is cute sweet megakong,” a Twiteratti commented.
For those curious, here’s how to use Grok AI’s Chibi template:
- Access Grok on X or grok.x.ai on desktop.
- Go to Grok Imagine and select image generation mode.
- Find the Chibi template in the style selector.
- Describe the subject.
- Generate and share; try multiple variations if needed.
Grok Imagine is available to X Premium subscribers, but SuperGrok Heavy subscribers get priority access and higher generation limits.
