Alexis Ohanian, the American internet entrepreneur, has found inspiration for his professional endeavors from his wife Serena Williams, and daughter Olympia on a regular basis. It was only because of the two he decided to play a crucial role in making equal pay a reality in soccer. For that, he made an investment of $100 million in the Natalie Portman-founded Angel City FC. It seems like Olympia’s innate creativity has again motivated her father to do something new. Olympia has triggered his entrepreneurial and techie mindset, which has made Ohanian take up a resolution.
Ohanian and Olympia spend a lot of time together baking or doing fun activities together while leaving Mama Williams out. However, this time, the renowned movie, ‘Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl’ plyed a part in Ohanian’s unique idea.

Once again, she instilled a new thought in him after they watched the movie, ‘Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl’. Ohanian took to his Twitter and stated, “Olympia asked me about Lavagirl’s parents after finishing the acclaimed Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl for the 10th time.”
Lack of knowledge did not hinder Ohanian from finding the answer. He stated, “I told her I didn’t know, but I said we should ask ChatGPT to write her origin story and then I had MidJourney illustrate her to Jr’s specifications.“
