NicoV Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 It's very personal but I don't have any... I'd rather manually filter tons of useless items than missing one because the seller had the stupid idea to write something like "this is not a photocopy" Taylor G, John E. and Twanj 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicoV Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Did you already try to play with ChatGPT? It's an AI-powered chatbot. I was curious to see what it could answer to my request: "Write a product brief for a website aggregating all original comic art for sale on any dealer, marketplace or auction house website"... and its answer is really close to what ComicArtTracker looks like!

The Modern NPC Who remembers Eliza? Eliza was a program you could type a query into and it would attempt to have a conversation with you. It dated to the 1960s and there were implementations on most of the 1970s personal computers, including the Tandy TRS-80 line. It was quite amusing but trivially evident you were talking at a program, not an intelligent thing. Wolfram Alpha is another example and one that's still around. It can and does produce fairly complex answers and, when the question is related to a mathematics or physics-related question is quite useful. Today's "latest round" of this is ChatGPT and schools are allegedly "banning it", blocking access and similar. Let's differentiate.……… https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=247817 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malvin It will definitely shrink departments where writing is involved. Add the AI illustration ability of midjourney and this will be the year you will see AI erode the opportunities of creative professionals.

Twanj Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 CAT continues to be indispensable. Thank you again! I've noticed that some of the HA auctions like the international ones have a 25% BP instead of the usual 20%: https://comics.ha.com/c/auction-home.zx?saleNo=7344&ic=breadcrumb-comics-121913-interior CAT seems to show the prices under tracked art as having a 20% BP, so it's slightly off. Also under tracked art for these HA auctions, "active 03/13/2023" when the actual item's end date is 3/11. The full auction ends from 3/10 to 3/12 so if you're following along in tracked art and not going to HA you may miss an auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to "fix" the 25% BP for International auctions manually and forgot to do it here, it's now done... thanks for reminding me ;-) As for the auctions end date, that's something that I already tried to fix but with no success for now. Heritage provides an end date which is 13/03/2023 CET or 12/03/2023 PST but when it's divided on several days I only have the final one :-/ Twanj and Mighty Hal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
