As Nikhil Kamath shares podcast teaser featuring Elon Musk, netizens speculate if it is real or AI-generated

Nikhil Kamath recently shared a teaser video on the social media platform X featuring his next podcast guest, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, sending the internet into a frenzy.

Netizens are wondering if the world's richest man is the next guest on the Indian billionaire’s show or if it is an AI-generated video. People are speculating how Kamath convinced the Tesla CEO to shoot the 39-second monochromatic teaser. Responding to people’s queries, Grok said the video ‘appears to be AI-generated’.

The monochromatic video opens with Zerodha's Nikhil Kamath flipping through some papers and then looking at Elon Musk. Both men sip on a beverage from cups bearing a SpaceX logo and laughing their hearts out.

“Caption this,” Kamath wrote on the video, without sharing any details and teasing the audience with a possible interview of Elon Musk on his WTF Podcast, which he regularly posts on YouTube.
