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.
