The Conquistador's Picture Of The Day

New technology?

(From another "fake ad." This time on MSNBC.)

Fake CNN ad. But I don't know her name!!!

(Tried searching for the image on Google. All I got was the "stock image" on the right. God, those legs... )

Another one of those silly ads. What age has to do with any of this I don’t know. In fact, right below this one is another ad for the same game saying “if you are over 30.” Whatever… to me the presence of these ads (like the "born in 1985" ones featuring 80 year old men) calls into question the integrity of the entire site. You have to wonder if the news they report is any more “accurate” or “reliable”?

However “Ladgertha” is fuckin’ hot. Good thing I’m a “lefty.” That leaves my right hand free to use the mouse… to play the game...

This may be the worst one yet...

"Born Before 1985"? Christ! Better not show this one to Hayley, Miley, Dove, Taylor, or Manon. Geeeze, it looks more like "Born Before 1885"!

(I tried looking it up. Google identified it as a "carving." So much for using moisturizer every morning... )

Now I'll never leave my computer. This is "Mica" the latest "digital assistant" released this week by Magic Leap.

What CNN reported:

(CNN Business) The tech world's latest virtual assistant looks so realistic, you might mistake her for an actual human.

Apple has Siri, and Amazon has Alexa. But the lifelikeness of both are dwarfed by Mica: a prototype that Magic Leap, a highly regarded augmented-reality startup, unveiled at its conference Wednesday.

Mica isn't just a voice assistant. She's something you can actually see if you wear the company's augmented-reality glasses, called Magic Leap One. Mica looks and acts like a human — she makes eye contact and offers a warm smile, along with other human-like expressions.

Experts say Mica is a breakthrough in realistic avatars and could have far-reaching implications for society, impacting everything from human connections to education and our health.

She's really cute. Actually she's gorgeous. Beautiful face. Can you get her with longer hair? Cis or Trans? What about the rest of her?

God, I hope my wife never comes home and finds me using Mica.

If I microwave a dinner and eat it in front of my computer or watch a movie on Netflix with Mica, does it count as a "date"?

What if say something "inappropriate" and Mica gets pissed off at me? Will I be "terminated"?

The technology sounds still somewhat "experimental" as one of the researchers mentions "a couple decades." Another says "we will populate the world." Hope I live long enough...

(I can see it now. We are driving in my car. Suddenly my phone says "Andy, this is Mica. We're gonna hit the oncoming car head on if you don't get your fucking eyes back on the road!" )

From CNN. Another one of those "fake ads." This time about "bad drivers in Indiana." Actually its a picture of me and my wife "playing games."
