Everybody’s talking about AI! So, we’ve decided to see just how smart AI actually is.
Rocky Balboa trains for his fights by running. A lot! We asked Google Bard: “How far did ROCKY run in his famous training montage?”
Bard gave us the following answer:
According to a 2013 article in Philadelphia magazine, Rocky ran 30.61 miles during his training montage in Rocky II. The article's author, Dan McQuade, pieced together the routes Rocky could have traveled from scene to scene in the montage and calculated the distance. The route includes running through South Philadelphia, North Philadelphia, the Italian Market, and the Art Museum steps.
It is important to note that this is just an estimate, as the exact route Rocky ran is not known. However, it is a good indication of how far he would have had to run to complete the montage.
The Rocky training montage is one of the most iconic scenes in film history. It is a powerful and inspiring depiction of Rocky's determination to win his rematch against Apollo Creed. The fact that Rocky ran 30.61 miles during the montage shows just how hard he was willing to work to achieve his goal.
So, did Bard get it right? It did rely on the human expert, Dan McQuade, so there’s hope for AI yet! Tell us your thoughts?
