An AI invented a bunch of new paint colors that are hilariously wrong (arstechnica.com)

The results are great and I'm not even sure I'd call them "wrong".

"Stoner Blue" FTW

They may be bad paint names, but I think they would be awesome names for some sort of Ikea-like hipster furnature.

Come to think if it, they would make great names for open source software, too.


The NN does a better job of inventing names for metal bands:

Who said that computers are humorless.

like many other things, it's pretty easy to make bad "AI"

Turdly seemed right on point though.

Ars Technica is tech Buzzfeed.

Why would you say that? Other than an occasional article like this they seem to have pretty good and in-depth stuff on space, cyber security, in-depth reviews (they're horrible at times I'll give you that)

You might be able to say the same about a much older version of buzzfeed, which I think is OP's point. Ars Technica seems watered down these days. Though I have never followed either source directly.

Yeah that might be true but I like the site, I hope they don't fall like buzzfeed
