Oh. My. God.

You have to see these.

Check these worst-dressed pictures. What the hell is up with Natalie Portman looking like a malnourished Star Trek reject. Or Lindsay Lohan and her "heroin not-so-chic" look? Trust me, you WILL feel better about yourself. All the money in the world doesn't buy style or class!

I think they're the same product, Bruce--that is, they let the online version run for a couple of years (I remember getting a link to it back in '03 at least) until they felt it was smart enough, then just loaded the program onto the toy to sell.

Edit: Well, close. I just went to the original website and learned that it was a separate toy company that licensed the AI from the website people.

But on the original website, if you beat it, it asked what the answer was. That could allow it to learn. The hand held doesn't do that. It's a good thing the hand held is in the form of a yo-yo shaped piece of plastic, rather than a Chucky Doll.

Amazing. There are some artists that I would like to see hooked up to an MRI while they work. This guy is creating a 3 dimensional sculpture bounded by the remains of a 2 dimensional cutout. I'm curious as to how much he plans these creations. If he does them all in his head, I don't ever want to play chess against him.

Check this one of his works out.
