Today’s Winning (Shoe) Chuckle!

Move over AlphaZero! Here comes the SHOE…

This playful video begs us on to ask the humbling question “If we humans can be beaten by lifeless, inanimate machine, then what insolent humiliation comes next?” The lowly shoe, of course!

Joking aside, I find the video BRILLIANT! I suspect it is a spoof on AI. Besides, we should beware the shoe, which has been the subject of a number horror, erotic or esoteric themes in literature and cinema.

IT’S A SHOE GAME
