Unusual video about pool rooms.

Shows how far AI still has to go. Somewhere between 75% and 90% bullshit and the rest highly misleading. The whole world is full of asbestos for one example including most older hospitals and government buildings. Leave it alone and it isn't a problem.

Other gross exaggerations. Still at ten to twenty-five percent true that is a lot that needed fixing!

I had to chuckle at all of the things they say no longer exists. Quite a bit of it is alive and well!

AI has two major problems. First garbage in results in garbage out. It can't recognize that data fed it is garbage. The other issue is the algorithms AI uses. Garbage doing the processing results in garbage out too. These things are why this video is way over 50% inaccurate.

Pretty obvious that the people setting up the software weren't around in the seventies. Their baselines are so far off that bogus results are guaranteed. Still people will watch it, just like I did!

That's consumer A.I.

The actual beast is nothing less.

Corner Pocket: World Billiards — free Windows demo, looking for pool-player feedback

Hey everyone! I’m the developer of Corner Pocket: World Billiards, a free-to-play 3D pool game for Windows. The full game is still in development and has not been released yet; the free demo is available now. Invite a friend for an online match, or practice against the computer.

The demo includes six rulesets, all played in the English Club hall:
• American 8-ball
• 9-ball
• Chinese 8-ball
• Brazilian Mata-8
• Russian Free Pyramid
• British Blackball

You can move the camera to line up a shot, hold to build power, and use topspin, backspin or side spin to control the cue ball.

The demo requires an internet connection and is free to try—no purchase needed. You can find it on Steam:
Free Windows demo on Steam

I’d love to hear from pool players—how do the aiming and cue-ball control feel?

Dumping - caught

I never understood what "dumping" is, probably because doing something blatantly dishonest is foreign to me. Kind of like stock options and leveraged security trading. Why not just invest straight up in a company that you believe in instead of "gaming the market" to siphon some dollars out of it?

Installing Taom Fusion tip on Revo shaft

I'm getting back into some tip work after a few years away, so I'm trying to get up to speed with the new equipment.

I'm trying to get a blue Taom fusion tip on a new Revo shaft. After removing the stock tip, I see some yellow chalky residue on the V-Tek Silencer pad. Thinking its from the prior tip, I take a few more thousandths of an inch off the silencer pad, but the yellow chalky stuff is still there. I sand very lightly -same result. Has anyone seen this before? Is the yellow chalky stuff normal? I'm expecting red residue, not yellow.

Second question - when installing the Taom fusion tip, should I lightly sand the "glue" side to remove the shine, or just let it be?

Third - do you recommend Loctite gel control or regular Loctite professional liquid glue in this situation?

Thanks.

Titleist Conversion

This one has Cortland wrap and was made by Ideologist/Patrick O'Brien here on AZ with Tom Coker's guidance. I'm wanting $1100 shipped.
