While Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce currently hold the spotlight as America’s prominent couple, there is a twist in the tale suggesting that John Oliver, an unexpected contender, might have clinched the title of the freshly crowned Super Bowl champion.
During a recent appearance on Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show on Monday evening, Oliver engaged in a conversation with Colbert where the topic of the Super Bowl surfaced, with Swift evidently in attendance to support her fiancé.
Colbert brought up the amusing trend of fans utilizing AI to pair Oliver and Swift together, showcasing several AI-generated images of the unlikely duo. One particular image depicted them seated at a modest bar, both holding drinks, with Colbert humorously noting Oliver’s cowboy hat and seemingly somber demeanor.
Amidst the display of more quirky AI-generated images, including one titled “Taylor and the Unobservant Prince,” where AI Taylor sported a crown while presenting an object to an Oliver without glasses, Colbert quizzed Oliver about his thoughts on this peculiar trend.
Expressing his surprise, Oliver responded, “No. I had absolutely no idea.” Despite finding the trend slightly unsettling, he humorously suggested that Swift could find solace in imagining worse scenarios, emphasizing his contentment with his own life and loved ones.
Colbert playfully egged Oliver on, suggesting a hypothetical battle between him and Kelce, to which Oliver responded in jest, “Are we engaging in verbal sparring? I prefer to wield words as my weapon of choice.”
The banter continued as they discussed the surreal nature of AI technology, particularly in light of the recent controversy surrounding AI-generated images of Swift and the rumored lawsuit against fake content. Amidst the oddities, it’s evident that AI technology can spark both amusement and intrigue.
