Plaids are back in fashion

A young girl showcases a bizarre outfit recommended by Doubao, an AI chatbot from ByteDance, highlighting the absurdity of its fashion advice. Users film themselves following Doubao's instructions, which often lead to ridiculous results, such as layering excessive clothing. Despite its popularity, with over 380 million monthly users, questions arise about AI's understanding of fashion. Experts note that fashion is subjective, complicating AI's ability to provide accurate style recommendations. In contrast, predictive models like Heuritech's effectively track trends, demonstrating AI's strengths in analyzing social media images rather than offering fashion advice.
