Viral Ad Shows AI‑Aged Musk, Bezos, Altman As Gym Lords Harvesting Human Power

by rrollins, February 28, 2026

A viral satirical ad by Belgian startup AiCandy imagines a bleak 2036 where automation has wiped out most jobs, leaving humans with nothing but time—and calories. The spoof features AI‑aged versions of Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Sam Altman running Energym, a dystopian fitness empire where the unemployed generate electricity for massive AI server farms. With hyper‑realistic visuals and pitch‑black humor, the clip taps into real anxieties about AI’s energy demands, job displacement and the influence of tech billionaires. The ad’s creators say the viral attention has already brought job offers, proving dystopian satire still hits a nerve.
