Mel’s Computer Care News Bulletin – November 2018
Welcome to my NOVEMBER NEWS BULLETIN which I do hope you find of interest
HOW IS THIS FOR A NEW CONCEPT
Facebook is bringing artificial intelligence to its advertising by letting you try on clothes & make up before you buy.
The adverts will appear with a ‘Tap To Try On’ option & Facebook will then access your Smart Phone camera which will allow you to see how an item would look on you
If you like the item, you can seamlessly go from the AI experience to actually buying it!
Make up & cosmetic adverts are next to try the concept so you will be able to see how an individual product will look on your face
It all sounds like science fiction or it could be a concept that could become a real money earner
