Kubrick and Clarke worked on '2001: A Space Odyssey' in parallel,
Kubrick modifying things as he felt necessary for his cinematic vision.
For example, the ending is at Jupiter, instead of Saturn, since
recreating Saturn's rings was beyond the SFX of 1968.
The book and the film diverge, particularly toward the end, though they remain compatible with each other in message, if not detail.
I know some of the readers in this group are very much down on AI. But
here, 56 years after the original, CB Newham has used AI to create the ending as written by Clarke.
Its very much worth a watch. I say that as a serious 2001 'stan.

I finally got around to checking this out. Way cool. I had just
watched the movie on HBO Max last month, (possibly for the first time).
I'm sure it needed a few human hours of labor. I wonder how many.
