2023-04-01 02:34:21 +0000 UTCI got a much needed laugh out of this. In fact, I enjoyed it so much I went in and asked ChatGPT to do one based on the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies (since they're on my mind because I'm currently rereading the trilogy). This is what it came up with: Greetings and welcome to my armor tier review of the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies! We'll be taking a look at some of the most iconic armor designs from these beloved films and rating them based on their functionality, protection, and style. Starting off with the lowest tier of armor, we have the goblin armor. This armor is bulky and not very practical, offering very little protection to the wearer. It's also quite ugly, lacking any real style or finesse. Overall, I'd say "Just stab me now" to wearing goblin armor. Next up, we have the orc armor. While slightly more effective than goblin armor, orc armor is still quite basic and lacks the finesse of some of the higher-tier armors. It's also quite heavy and cumbersome, which can be a disadvantage in battle. However, the spiky design of the armor can be effective in intimidating enemies. Overall, I'd give orc armor a "Not today" for wearing it. Moving up to the middle tier, we have the dwarf armor. While not as flashy as some of the other armor designs in the films, dwarf armor is practical and effective. It's made from sturdy materials and is designed to protect the wearer while still allowing for mobility in battle. It also features intricate designs and engravings that add a touch of style. Overall, I'd give dwarf armor an "I'd consider it" for wearing it. Continuing up the tiers, we have the elven armor. Elven armor is designed for speed and agility, allowing the wearer to move quickly and gracefully in battle. It's also made from high-quality materials and features intricate designs that reflect the elegance and grace of the elves. Overall, I'd give elven armor a solid "I'd wear it" for its functionality and style. Finally, at the top of the tier list, we have the armor of the White Council. This armor is both stylish and functional, offering excellent protection to the wearer while still allowing for ease of movement. It's also beautifully crafted, featuring intricate designs and engravings that reflect the power and sophistication of the White Council. Overall, I'd give the armor of the White Council a resounding "Hell yes, I'd wear it!" for its combination of functionality, style, and overall awesomeness.

2023-03-30 01:11:02 +0000 UTCI did notice that. Wonder Woman doesn't even wear boots, they're just really elaborate sandals :D
Jill Bearup
2023-03-29 09:27:32 +0000 UTCWell we know it's not the real Jill when it gives Wonder Woman's combat wedges a "I'd wear it now".

2023-03-29 08:15:38 +0000 UTCThat was scary... If I saw that on your channel, I would worry that you might have had a stroke or that you got bludgeoned over the head with a heavy, yet practical and stylish boot that's also practical and functional. Tier list: battle ready.

2023-03-29 08:11:14 +0000 UTCbarely a practical or stylish in the bunch! good bot

2023-03-29 03:40:12 +0000 UTCI also ran the same prompt through GPT-4, the latest model and aside from one teeny-tiny little factual error it did a lot better. That is one of the big issues with predictive text models like GPT-X, basically they work by looking at what words are usually found next to each other in the internet and don't really have much in the way of semantic context so they are often wrong with confidence. Title: Women's Boot Styles in Movies: A Kickin' Armour Tier List! [INTRO] JILL: (cheerfully) Hello, everyone! I'm Jill Bearup, and today we'll be talking about women's boot styles in movies! We'll be focusing on some iconic characters and rating their boots according to my armour tier list, from "I Would Wear It" to "Just Stab Me Now." So let's get ready to kick some serious style points! [SEGMENT 1: INTRODUCTION] JILL: (enthusiastically) Boots can make or break a costume, and they play a crucial role in action scenes. We'll examine the design, practicality, and overall style of these boots, taking into consideration the demands of the characters' roles. So let's dive into our first example! [SEGMENT 2: EXAMPLES] Wonder Woman - Diana Prince (2017) JILL: (smiling) First up, we have the Amazonian warrior herself, Diana Prince, aka Wonder Woman! Her boots are a mix of the iconic red and gold, with a practical flat sole and some serious shin protection. While they may not be the most subtle choice for everyday wear, they are both stylish and functional. Armour Tier List Rating: "I Would Wear It" The Bride - Beatrix Kiddo (Kill Bill) JILL: Beatrix Kiddo, better known as The Bride, sports some sleek and deadly yellow and black Asics sneakers. While they aren't traditional boots, these shoes are practical for her martial arts-based fighting style and perfectly complement her iconic yellow jumpsuit. Armour Tier List Rating: "Why Not? Let's Fight!" Black Widow - Natasha Romanoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe) JILL: (excited) Next up is Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow. Her boots are a blend of style and function, with a low heel and secure lacing for maximum mobility. These black, tactical boots are perfect for an elite spy and hand-to-hand combat expert. Armour Tier List Rating: "I Would Wear It" River Tam - Serenity (2005) JILL: River Tam, the psychic prodigy from the cult classic Serenity, wears a pair of functional, low-heeled boots. While they aren't flashy, these boots allow her to perform her acrobatic and gravity-defying fighting style with ease. Armour Tier List Rating: "Sure, Why Not?" Catwoman - Selina Kyle (The Dark Knight Rises) JILL: (grinning) Lastly, we have the cunning Selina Kyle, aka Catwoman. Her high-heeled, thigh-high boots may be a stylish choice, but they are far from practical. While they do add an air of elegance and a certain feline flair, they could be problematic for someone constantly on the move and engaging in combat. Armour Tier List Rating: "Just Stab Me Now" [CONCLUSION] JILL: (smiling) And there you have it! These are just a few examples of women's boot styles in movies. While some designs prioritize style over practicality, it's always fascinating to see how costume designers balance form and function. Remember to like, share, and subscribe for more content like this, and let me know in the comments which character's boots you'd love to wear! Thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time!

2023-03-29 00:37:37 +0000 UTCMy favorite ChatGPT experience was a doctor gave it a case with symptoms and a red herring. It made a correct diagnosis BUT blamed the red herring and started making up medical articles that it said supported it's wrong reasoning. It was effective but not practical.

2023-03-28 23:13:45 +0000 UTCRE: Kite shield vs. buckler while "dueling" - first, kite and armor are more likely a military/group combat form rather than 1:1 "dueling" (sure, there are accounts of 1:1 battles between "heroes" from all times/cultures, but this looks like what you'd find in an army). Second, large shield (often with heavier hacking sword, axe, or mace rather than light-pokey sword) is a different combat form from buckler. Larger/heavier shield is better for absorbing energy, doesn't require QUITE as active "defense" (more rotating the corners and edges to intercept a blow, rather than punching to meet the attack), but it can interfere with attack - hence different techniques. No doubt Jill can explain differences from a stage combat perspective better than that, or check out HEMA studies.

2023-03-28 22:05:48 +0000 UTCWell... Atleast now you have the tagline for your online store.... "Products that're practical and functional with a look that is both stylish and practical"

2023-03-28 20:53:34 +0000 UTCThe original statue was a funerary sort of thing, so again, not necessarily realaistic. What I'm wondering...would you really want a massive kite shield if you're dueling? Wouldn't you want a buckler?

2023-03-28 18:04:35 +0000 UTCSimilar depictions of that same statue are also around; for instance here: https://baldwinhamey.wordpress.com/2013/04/29/guy-of-warwick/

2023-03-28 18:03:07 +0000 UTCOk. I've looked through Patreon and my email and I can't see in either place that I actually sent my request/proposal, so I guess I'll do it now. My (english professor and researcher) were taking photos from a book in January of 2022 of a dude in armor with a big-old kite shield. I asked her if I could send you the photo as a query in your "please send me armor" post of similar timeframe. I realize you're mostly concentrating on fictional work, and while this depiction is hundreds of years old, it's probably frankly as much fiction as anything. This isn't exactly the same woodcut but it's a very close copy, I think: https://baldwinhamey.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/original-statue-at-guys-cliff.jpg I would send you the real photos that we took if you wanted to review it. The photo we were taking is form the Antiquities of Warwicksire by Dougdale. The book is a woodcut of a drawing of a statue that used to be at a place called "Guy's Cliff" (presumably in Warwick?). The remains of the statue is still apparently there, although all the detail is gone. The update: The photo is now on the cover of my wife's second scholarly book: "Old English Scholarship in the Seventeenth Century: Medievalism and National Crisis" (by Rebecca Brackmann). You can look on Amazon, and in fact see the photo, so I guess I don't need to send it to you, unless you want a more high-res copy with the rest of the page. (The book is very sweetly dedicated to me, which I don't think I knew when I proposed this, or possibly failed to.) Anyway, completely off the track from most of your submissions, but I figured it might amuse you. Thanks for listening.

2023-03-28 18:00:51 +0000 UTCHere works! I will add it to my highly scientific google doc :)

2023-03-28 17:31:13 +0000 UTCAh. Interesting. I didn't realize that "has been trying to replace me by" translated to "he put this query into actual ChatGPT and sent me the resulting text, which I will now perform for you and also react to". I understand now. Gotcha. I assumed the repetition was your writing a parody of ChatGPT's stilted style. Excellent April 1 video. Love it! And since I have you here, and since commenting seems to be working, I have an update for an armor review request that I sent you a while ago. Where should I send the update to be least annoying? Here? To a (I think possibly) public email? The update is significant both to the query and to its connection to me and might change your mind about whether it's worth doing. All the best. Love your content. I hope the household is all healthy again.

2023-03-28 17:27:41 +0000 UTCIt's a tie between Sarah's and Lara's boots. I do like me some @$$ kicking boots. Thanks for sharing this. I needed a laugh this morning (rainy and miserable here).

2023-03-28 17:26:53 +0000 UTCHow much will the editor charge for a 62,500 word script?
Anders
2023-03-28 17:23:26 +0000 UTCSo to be fair to the AI it's training dataset actually ended in September of 2021 which was, I think, before the first of the armor tier list videos hit so it actually generated this based on your earlier comment and the prompt. I still don't think you need to worry for your job but makes it overall a bit more impressive
