Using xAI's Grok Imagine tool, Musk created two hyper-realistic clips: one of himself outside a dark door in a blue sweater, exhaling smoke, and another in a lantern-lit Chinese setting passing a cigarette to a Nikita Bier lookalike. He captioned the first 'I don’t even smoke lol 💨,' referencing his aversion to tobacco despite a famous 2018 Joe Rogan puff. The posts highlighted Grok Imagine's rapid evolution into a low-cost video generator rivaling studio tools, drawing quick praise for its realistic motion, lighting, and smoke effects.
