50 Cent learning how to make AI-generated videos is the equivalent of a social media nuclear weapon. 50 always keeps up with what’s making waves in the national news, and he took a swipe at the former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who stepped down on Thursday (Nov. 12) after it was revealed he was having an extramarital affair with a Chinese spy.
50 posted an altered A.I. deepfake of the “P.I.M.P.” music video, but had Huang replace Snoop Dogg’s role in the visual. “Jensen don’t sweat it come be head of AI at G-Unit film & television GLG GreenLightGang in full effect,” 50 captioned the post.

A fan commented: “Huang the new member of Jen-Unit!”
“P.I.M.P.” arrived in 2003 and reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. The remix of the Mr. Porter-produced anthem featured Snoop alongside G-Unit’s Young Buck and Lloyd Banks.
According to The New York Times, the A.I. tech giant had a pair of affairs that led to the scandal exploding this week. One entanglement was with a woman whom U.S. intelligence officials tabbed as a Chinese spy, Alice Huang (unrelated), while another affair was with a fellow executive of the company.
50 didn’t stop there. He continued to troll Huang by posting another AI deepfake of the disgraced entrepreneur as Justin Bieber in Drake’s 2020 “Popstar” music video. “lol like this I don’t know why, but I like it,” he added in the caption.

Huang admitted in a company-wide message before stepping down that he had been “unfaithful” to his wife, Lori Huang. The couple shares two children.
