What does the “Will Smith vs. Spaghetti” meme mean?
The meme works as a yardstick for progress in AI video: the warped, unsettling 2023 clip became the test every new model tries to pass. People use it to comment on an AI demo, joke about melting faces, or applaud a technical leap. The version where Will Smith battles a spaghetti monster pushes the wink further by turning the dish into an opponent. The humor lies in the absurd scene and the contrast between yesterday’s chaos and today’s sharpness.
Where does the “Will Smith vs. Spaghetti” meme come from?
According to Wikipedia, the meme began on March 27, 2023, when Reddit user chaindrop shared on the StableDiffusion subreddit a video made with ModelScope’s text-to-video tool: a distorted, surreal Will Smith eating spaghetti. It went viral and inspired many parodies. In February 2024, Will Smith posted his own parody on Instagram, captioned “This is getting out of hand!”. In May 2025, a Veo 3 version impressed with its accuracy, and in February 2026 Forbes judged that Seedance 2.0 had passed the test. The card also mentions a 2026 video where the actor fights a spaghetti monster.
