“Literally Spit My Drink at Work From This”: AI-Generated Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Outlandish Music Video Leaves the Internet Roaring With Laughter

AI technology has taken the world by storm. From creating art to writing stories to making music, AI is progressing at a blistering pace. While the existential dread about the new tech has gripped the internet, some people like YouTuber Brian Monarch are using it in a fun way. In one of his videos, Monarch puts Arnold Schwarzenegger into films, TV shows, and music videos that he never starred in, producing hilarious results.

In his latest video about the bodybuilding icon, the YouTuber created an AI-generated short that puts Arnie in an Austin Powers movie. However, Monarch didn’t just face-swap the seven-time Mr. Olympia in the clip; he also used an AI-generated voice model of Arnie. The outlandish video had fans roaring with laughter in the comments.

AI Arnold Schwarzenegger bursts into song and dance 

In the video titled Arnold Schwarzenegger and His Clone are Very Evil, the YouTuber face-swapped Austin Powers actor Mike Myers with the Austrian Oak. In the Austin Powers movies, Myers plays both the bad guy and the protagonist. However, Brian Monarch faced-swapped Arnie as Mayer’s Doctor Evil and his clone Mini-me, originally played by Verne Troyer.

In the video, Arnie features as the bad guys in a scene where they plan to cause a riot. However, when an inmate refuses, the AI Schwarzenegger and his clone burst into song and dance. What makes the scene even more hilarious is the voice model of Schwarzenegger singing and rapping, but devoid of any emotion.

Interestingly, the 75-year-old actor also uses an AI-generated voice model to assist with his daily podcast. Due to his busy schedule, Schwarzenegger couldn’t record every session of the Arnold’s Pump Club podcast. Hence the bodybuilding icon announced he would use AI. However, his use of AI didn’t make fans reeling with laughter in the comments.

The fans can’t get enough of the hilarious AI Arnie

One fan narrated how he reacted while watching the video. “I literally spit my drink at work from this. F**king hilarious,” wrote the fan. Another fan said even the 75-year-old would find Monarch’s videos funny. “I bet even Arnie would be cracking up with these,” commented the fan. “I really want to be in the room with Arnold when he discovers your channel,” one user echoed the same sentiment.

One fan heard the rap section and wanted more. “No joke I would listen to an entire album of arnie raps in my car,” they commented. Other rap music fans wanted AI Schwarzenegger to star beside Eminem. “Need Arnie in 8 Mile, now more than ever!” wrote one fan. How did you react to the outlandish video? Let us know in the comments.
