Tyler , the Creator has also been vital of generative AI , which Musk is actively building with x. AI and Grok . In aninterview earlier this yr , Tyler tell AI “ will never take in up to me creatively . ” That ’s a consummate direct contrast to Musk , who said this summer at Cannes Lions that AI will onlyenhance human creativity .
