At the 08:50-mark of his November 5 livestream, the One True King (OTK) co-founder was browsing his subreddit when he came across a highly upvoted post by Redditor u/DranDran. This post showcased 20 different AI-trained pictures featuring Asmongold:

Asmongold was awestruck by the portaits, claiming that one of them seemingly depicted him as a member of an Alternative Rock band:

"Okay let's see here. That looks good too! Holy s**t! Wow! This is like, bro, if I did Alternative Rock music, this could be the cover for my album!"

The Austin, Texas-based content creator noted that the computer-trained image also detailed his iconic roll-up sleeves. He took the opportunity to explain why his shirt's sleeves are often rolled up and said:

"Wow, it's my house and they even have my rolled up sleeves, because I always; oh actually, oh yeah, it is like that. I usually sleep on one side and I always; I had a trick that like, a trick to save time in the morning, is like, I would go to sleep with the clothes on, that I was going to wear the next day. So whenever I woke up, I wouldn't have to get dressed. Yeah, there you f***ing go!"

Zack was surprised by the accuracy of some of the images in the album:

"Let's see this. There's too many teeth. So yeah, that one's not too good, but okay. Damn! This is very generous with the hair. This is good, man! I'm really surprised at, like, these are so accurate. What the f**k?"

Asmongold was caught off guard by one of the final AI-trained images in the set. He joked that the picture reminded him of his emotions after "stealing a mount" in World of Warcraft:

"Oh my god! This is after I steal a mount. Bro, this picture... if f***ing, look at this! Oh my god! Oh my f***ing; oh wow! Oh wow, I look like a f***ing; oh, I know what shirt that is! Yeah, because the collar on that shirt was annoying me, and I just cut the whole collar off of the shirt! Yeah!"

The discussion concluded with the Twitch sensation stating:

"Is this what the future has to offer? And this is all done by AI. Like, this is really cool, this is f***ing terrifying, and this is unsettling. Oh my... what the f**k, man! 'AI art is literally stealing,' I guess so. This is scary!"
