One of my favorite things about smartwatches is their ability to morph their appearance depending on the day. Between all the watch faces on the Play Store, you’re covered for whatever look you want to achieve. You might not realize it, but the same applies to watch bands, too.

Companies generally spend quite a lot of time and resources in developing and training AI models. We’ve seen AI used in all kinds of ways, such as detecting diseases in humans that doctors might have otherwise missed, but the folks over at Imgflip have come up with a rather novel use of the technology, which is to create memes.
Memes have been around for a long time now and they’re more often than not generated by humans. However, by training AI to recognize and understand memes, ImgFlip is trying to see if AI can be applied to memes to generate their own, which you can find on ImgFlip’s website where there are a bunch of selected memes that will randomly generate text it thinks is appropriate to the meme.
According to Imgflip, “These captions are generated by a deep artificial neural network. Nothing about the text generation is hardcoded, except that the maximum text length is limited for sanity. The model uses character-level prediction, so you can specify prefix text of one or more characters to influence the text generated.”
They trained their AI model based on public images generated by users using Imgflip’s Meme Generator and the top 48 most popular meme templates. We have to say that some of the results can be hilarious even if it doesn’t make sense, but if you refresh it often enough, it does get some memes correct, making it even more hilarious when you think that it was created by a computer.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Cinematic Trailer Looks Like Something Straight Out Of A Movie
Posted in: Today's ChiliUbisoft’s approach to the Assassin’s Creed franchise has been to release a new title every year. However, in the recent years, the company has opted to change that up and the last time we saw a major title was back in 2018 with Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. For fans of the franchise who have been looking forward to a new title, you’re in luck.
The company has recently taken the wraps off the latest title in the series in the form of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, where as the name suggests, this will be an Assassin’s Creed game in which players will be able to play as a viking, which is pretty awesome if you’re into Norse mythology and folklore.
The company has since released an accompanying cinematic trailer to announce the upcoming game, where the title is expected to find its way onto both current-gen consoles like the PS4 and Xbox One, as well as next-gen consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X, along with Windows and also Google Stadia.
There was no mention of the Nintendo Switch so it looks like Switch players could be sitting this one out for now. There is no specific release date yet, but the company is currently aiming for a holiday 2020 release. If you have a few minutes to spare, you’ll definitely want to check out the cinematic trailer in the video above.

Over the years, Apple has steadily increased the price of its iPhones to levels where some people are starting to feel it’s quite ridiculous. However, there is some good news because according to a tweet by Jon Prosser of FrontpageTech, he claims that the iPhone 12 could be priced somewhat affordably.
The tweet claims that the iPhone 12 could be priced starting at $649. However, there is a catch. The tweet suggests that there could be four iPhone 12 models launching this year, and that the base model will not necessarily be a direct successor to the iPhone 11. Instead, it will be a smaller version with a 5.4-inch display.
This could be the reason behind the slightly lower price, where it is $50 cheaper than the current iPhone 11. Prosser’s tweet goes on to reveal the other prices of the iPhones, where the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 will be priced more expensive than its predecessor at $749 (a $50 increase), while the iPhone 12 Pro will be priced at $999, and the iPhone 12 Pro Max will be priced at $1,099.
Been seeing some reports speculating on iPhone 12 prices, so I asked my sources 👇

$9996.7 iPhone 12 Pro Max D54P

$1,099— Jon Prosser (@jon_prosser) April 30, 2020
His tweet also notes that 5G will be a feature common across the entire lineup, so if you don’t want to pay top-dollar for the iPhone 12 Pro Max, then $649 will be the cheapest 5G iPhone you’ll be able to buy. Take it with a grain of salt for now, but Prosser claims that this is the same source that had accurately predicted the iPhone SE’s launch date, so maybe there is some truth to these claims.
