New AI Trained Only on Pre-1930 Data Speaks Like the Most Old-Timey Guy Imaginable

Researchers have developed 'Talkie', an AI model trained on pre-1930 data, which can converse in an old-timey style. The model, with 13 billion parameters, exhibits both fascinating and anachronistic responses, raising questions about its predictive capabilities.
Researchers have created 'Talkie', an AI model trained on text sources from before 1930. With 13 billion parameters, it's considered the largest 'vintage' model. Talkie can converse in a style reminiscent of the past, using a Mid-Atlantic accent. The model is unaware of its pre-1930 data limitation and sometimes produces anachronistic answers. It can create simple programs but has limited capabilities. Talkie made predictions about future events, including another World War in 1936 and 'flying machines' for transport. It also predicted that 'talking pictures' would be a novelty that might supplement silent films.
