MicroStrategy co-founder and high-profile Bitcoin cheerleader Michael Saylor has posted almost 500 AI-generated pro-Bitcoin images to X (formerly Twitter) since February 2023.
Saylor’s love for the currency is no secret — his entire business model was seemingly based around buying up vast quantities — but there’s something else that he loves to include in the images plastered all over his social media feeds: Himself.
Specifically, himself reimagined as a raft of alternative Saylors.
In the roughly 473 AI-generated images posted to X, he’s recast himself, Barbie-style, as Dr. Saylor, Rock Climber Saylor, Bowling Saylor, Racecar Driver Saylor, Surfer Saylor, President Saylor, Fast Food Worker Saylor, and Professor Saylor.
He’s even depicted himself as a levitating monk.
In his ‘President Saylor’ image, he even appears in the crowd, not once but three times.
There doesn’t appear to be a ‘Fortune Teller Saylor’ — surprising given that at the Bitcoin 2024 conference, he predicted the currency would reach $13 million by 2045. It’s currently just under $64,000.

Strange though they are, there is one thing you can say about Saylor’s AI portraits — unlike other AI abominations, he always seems to have five fingers. This is a small sliver of light for an industry whose biggest player, OpenAI, is reportedly set to make an operational loss of $5 billion this year.
