A man took advantage of the powers of artificial intelligence (AI) and created pictures of himself booed up with Swazi-born amapiano star Uncle Waffles. If that wasn't enough, he added an AI baby into the mix.
On 17 August, 2025, TikTok user @kaylxne_theengineer took to his account and showed the three photos he produced using Gemini AI (Google's AI assistant), as he stated in his comment section.
In all the pictures, the supposed couple is seated at a restaurant table, gazing at each other lovingly. The last image, which featured their 'child,' showed Uncle Waffles, real name Lungelihle Zwane, holding the child as they snapped the candid picture.
The engineer jokingly captioned his post:

"Some will say it's AI."
Uncle Waffles saw the post and responded with:
"OMG."
She accompanied her shock with a picture of The Incredibles' Violet, who had water gushing out of her nose.
