Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 07, 2023

Uses use?

There are videos of the project primrose dress on YouTube.

Next, an improved version of the Rorschach mask?

Justin has obviously become very good, but his dog still gets freaked out.

The only thing the AI needs to predict a hit is whether it came from Taylor Swift or BTS.

“uses use?”

I like the dress.

When’s AI gonna be able to predict yesterdays weather?

I am suddenly much less frightened of AI.

A computer wrote the song based on a formula. It makes sense that another computer would know if it was a hit with the meat-based lifeforms.

Just exactly how does that A1 sauce work?

Speaking of blind, where’s the editor that allowed “…is blind and uses use a cane…”?

That’s 97% of the songs I won’t listen to

So AI predicts hit songs (a questionable use of any kind of intelligence)! So consumers just send their music buying dollars directly to who; the artists, the producers, the song writers or the record publishers? And since the AI predicts the hits, what becomes of Bill Board Magazine lists; and the folks who compile the data to produce the lists? It is no longer necessary to wait for sales to determine popularity since AI does it for us? Ah, yes, the “End of the World as We Know It” (another hit song) is just upon the near horizon!

Music lovers (in total) predict hit songs with 100% accuracy.

Hope his protective pads are made of kevlar – traveling fast on a skateboard doesn’t give you much time to dodge or stop “hitting the rails” – tomorrow’s strip with be about Helen Kelnievel who couldn’t see what she was jumping on her motorcycle

Now Adobe needs to improve the appearance of the wearers. Shape shifter welcome.

In 2023 Adobe also got caught dozens of times using AI to plagiarize other people’s art so that Adobe could sell it for a profit without providing the original artist any royalties for their work

Some people who are blind are learning to use echo location, similar to what bats do. Sounds like that is what Justin Bishop is doing.

The other 3% are novelty songs.

If it predicts hit songs with a 97% accuracy rate, it truly is artificial intelligence.

Two thumbs up to Justin on his desire to skateboard.
