Brian May has said that “we don’t actually need AI” and to prove a point he’s ‘created’ an appallingly-bad version of an old Queen album sleeve using the technology.
Posting on Instagram, the 79-year-old guitarist shared that he had used Meta AI to create a version of Queen’s 1980 album The Game. The original, you might remember, features a black and white image of four band members side by side, dressed in black leather jackets and looking mean, moody and determinedly modern for 1980 - Freddie is clean shaven, May is wearing shades and Roger Taylor folds his arms and scowls at the camera.
