Having an internet connected camera residing in the place where you get dressed brings a whole new meaning to the term 'creepy'

Honestly, I had to look at the calendar. Is this 27 days belated?

I wonder if Howard Wolowitz came up with this idea...

Exactly.

But the sad thing is .... no, it isn't.

I wonder how it judges what is "stylish" or not - style and fashion are very fickle and difficult concepts to define.

Stylish = "wearing things that are in amazon's product range" in this case I'd imagine.

I accidentally activated mine when I was wearing my birthday suit and was very upset when the style assistant told me that it needed ironing :(

"Style Check leverages some of Amazon's Alexa deep learning AI nouse - distilled from 'fashion specialists'. "
That and what Spacein said.

I, however, like to dress "like the supporting actors in 80s sci-fi B-movies"... or so I'm told, although she still married me... so I guess a few 'Fashion Specialists' will be suffering heart attacks on the day I get me one o' these!! :lol:
