AI Artist Reimagines Iconic Pop Culture Characters in Different Universes, and It’s Freakishly Amusing

People can’t get enough of imagining franchises as cyberpunk films, and The Wizard of Oz is no exception. Instead of a yellow brick road, Dorothy would be hacking her way through a neon-lit cityscape on a hoverboard. The Scarecrow would have a virtual reality headset., while The Tin Man would be a robot with a heart made of circuits.

But that’s not all for these characters – the Cowardly Lion would be a cybernetically enhanced beast! The Wicked Witch of the West would be a rogue AI terrorizing the city. And the Wizard? He’d be a mysterious hacker with a hidden agenda, probably typing away on his glowing keyboard in the corner.
