A piece of AI art has surfaced online, amazingly blending together the worlds of Star Wars and cyberpunk in a beautiful way. Since 1977, Star Wars has been a staple of not only cinema but science-fiction pop culture, something that has only grown in recent decades. Similarly, the 1990s saw an influx of cyberpunk-influenced media, which led to the setting becoming its own subgenre of science fiction across a variety of franchises.
With recent AI advancements dominating the internet of late, a piece of AI art has blended together the world of Star Wars with cyberpunk in a post from starwars_art_ai on Instagram. The artificial intelligence-produced art imagines a Star Wars clone trooper as a cyberpunk soldier. Not unlike the appearance of characters seen in other sci-fi franchises such as Mass Effect, the art renders the clone trooper in the iconic clone suit, outfitted with bright neon lights adorning the edges of the armor.
