It makes me sad that there are so many AI videos and audios of Ozzy Osbourne out there now. I don't care if he said the same things in an interview - creating and sharing artificial AI audio or video after someone's death just feels plain disrespectful unless they gave permission while alive. The worst part is you can't always tell the AI-generated ones from the real videos... that's where we're at now with the world.

Here's one of the wilder Ozzy tributes you'll see. Nini, a Taiwanese musician known for her mastery traditional Chinese string instruments and very creative covers of pop songs did her version of Crazy Train on a Sanxian (instrument). The name of the instrument literally means "three strings."

Ozzy Osbourne has died.
I'm not sure it's even appropriate in his case to wish he goes to heaven, but he had a pretty good farewell. At least there's that. Well done.

"Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning"
