This is completely false, they didn't win. It has since been updated to say that it is because Luxembourg won the year before and couldn't afford to hold the contest, so the UK stepped in. You can't trust it; it often presents rumour as truth.
I did try to ask AI on several sites about an obscure song's lyrics. Dimestore Jesus by Terry Bradshaw. I tried to think of a now-forgotten song that was popular back in the day.
It came back that no song exists, there are no references to an 8x10 and a dimestore in the song, and it came back with info about Terry Bradshaw's football days. AI only pulls out info put on what's on Google or what the engineers program.
I even asked AI about its radio airplay, and it came back with its unknown song. Dimestore Jesus got a lot of radio airplay on country, oldies and religious radio stations in the '80s when I was in America.
He also thinks the internet is making us more stupid. "When you get machines thinking for you, your brain just atrophies." He fears we're heading towards "a post-democratic, post-art, post-culture society where we've got artificial intelligence on one side and we've a kind of natural stupidity on the other side, we just become these dumbed down machines that are taking instructions".

It still has trouble with Northern accents and Scottish dialects.
At the moment AI is just making harmless audio visual memes. But it will turn sinister soon.

The extensive use of A1 on Youtube can really annoy me.
There are endless videos made with AI that are such a waste of time but they probably make money.
I don't even like the annoying use of it to make Donald Trump look awful. Mind you there are some of him I think are really amusing..pLaying the piano Elton John style etc. Some are clever.
Didn't a TV program predict all this decades ago?
Oh yes..MAX HEADROOM !
