Generative AI | Recreating the Energy Drink-Guzzling Hacker Cat I Made a Long Time Ago | Cyberpunk | Reconcile with Cats | RedBull | note

Back in February 2025, when I didn't even know that AI could create music videos or illustrations, or even what AI was capable of, I tried making a cat.
That was the 'Energy Drink-Guzzling Hacker Cat'...
It's the cat I also use as my X (Twitter) icon 😃
If you look closely, it's not actually drinking an energy drink (´･ω･` )

There are several versions of the original hacker cat, but this time I'll try creating a new one based on the cat in the thumbnail.

Like this, it's guzzling it down.
The hands look a bit more human, don't they?
And furthermore...

I feel like I've captured a sense of desperation or speed in the typing 😃
The keyboard also looks more functional with all its colors.
And monitor-like things have appeared in the background too (´･ω･` )
But the first one had a cuter face, while I think this one has more of a cool factor.
And then...

I wanted to try making a video with Sora2 and see what would happen if I made it guzzle an energy drink, but because of the composition of the second image, it didn't go well, so I made it with the feeling of, 'What if it were a realistic cat?'

Also, in my head, I have a lot of ideas for the MV's imagery, camera angles, and story with this 'Energy Drink-Guzzling Hacker Cat' as the protagonist,
but I lack an understanding of the basics of AI generation, so I need to learn that first.
However, I've always liked otherworld fantasy,
so I tend to come up with the world-building and settings first.
I'll keep working on it little by little while thinking about the settings ♪😃
