AI shows what Elvis Presley would look like 46 years after his tragic death
Artificial intelligence has given us a glimpse of what Elvis Presley might have looked like today, had he not tragically passed away at the tender age of 42.
If Elvis were still alive today, he would be celebrating his 88th birthday. It's not entirely far-fetched to imagine that if he hadn't succumbed to hypertensive cardiovascular disease in the 70s, he could still be serenading us with his timeless hits.
The iconic singer was found unresponsive in the bathroom of his lavish Graceland mansion. His health had been deteriorating due to chronic constipation that lasted for four months. One medical expert suggested that the "strain of attempting to defecate" may have compressed his abdominal aorta, leading to heart failure. A post-mortem examination revealed a compacted stool, estimated to be four months old, lodged in his bowel.
Elvis's lifestyle choices contributed to his declining health and he was known for his indulgence in cheeseburgers while secluded in his room. Alongside his unhealthy diet, he battled vertigo, back pain, insomnia, and eye infections. In 1973, he was rushed to the hospital in a semi-comatose state, suffering from severe respiratory distress.

In pictures generated by DALL-E 2 AI, the King of Rock 'n' Roll, Elvis Presley, appears to have shed some pounds he gained in his twilight years. Despite a receding hairline, the AI-generated images still portray him with a luscious mane of dark hair, streaked with distinguished grey.
One striking snapshot reveals the Jailhouse Rock sensation's teeth tinged with hues of blue and yellow and the artificially generated images don't shy away from showing the signs of aging on Elvis, with visible wrinkles and slight jowls as his mouth hangs open in one picture.
His eyebrows, now grey, have grown bushier over time, and noticeable bags under his eyes hint at the passage of time.
Unfortunately, the King was plagued by numerous health issues leading up to his untimely demise. He required round-the-clock nursing care and allegedly abstained from bathing for the entirety of 1975, resulting in sores developing all over his body.

Prominent California physician Forest Tennant suggests that this injury could have triggered a progressive autoimmune inflammatory disorder as a piece of the star's brain tissue dislodged and seeped into his bloodstream.
Elvis' girlfriend, Ginger Alden, discovered his lifeless body in a tragic state, with pyjama bottoms around his ankles and his bottom in the air. In a chilling account, she painted the scene: "His arms lay on the ground, close to his sides, palms facing upward. " It was clear that, from the moment he landed on the floor, Elvis hadn't moved. I gently turned his face toward me. A hint of air expelled from his nose. The tip of his tongue was clenched between his teeth and his face was blotchy. I gently raised one eyelid. His eye was staring straight ahead and blood red."
Adding to the tragic narrative, toxicology reports revealed a shocking cocktail of substances in the music legend's system at the time of his untimely demise. The report identified 14 different drugs, painting a grim picture of Elvis' final hours.
