AI is absolutely horrible at naming paint colors
Tired of your boring eggshell walls? A new AI experiment recommends colors like "Sink" or "Bank Butt."
SEE ALSO:We're not saying you're obsolete, but Google is making music humans can'tResearcher Janelle Shane trained a neural network to come up with paint names, and it resulted in gems like "Stoner Blue" and "Turdly," she wrote in a blog post.
She conducted an experiment by using a training data set of about 7,700 paint names from Sherwin-Williams along with the RGB (red, green, and blue color values).
She then had the network generate new colors and names for those colors. The results were hugely varied, including colors with Gray or Blue in the name that had nothing to do with those colors, or completely abstract and awesome names like "Stanky Bean."
