    Julie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) reported

    Last week Idaho Governor Brad Little signed HB 542, Stop Harms from Addictive Social Media Act (SHASM - ADF calls is “Shazam!! 💥”) While the bill seems to have good intentions, it’s impossible to implement without universal age verification - handing MORE data of children to Big Tech - and constant behavioral monitoring of children online. This “solution” will undoubtedly make the problem worse. Additionally, it is the opposite of “parental empowerment”, forcing a government mandate on every family.

    Shazam Founder @Inghelbrecht says Shazam should never have existed. To build the company in 2000, the team had to digitize one of the world’s largest music libraries before streaming existed. They had to invent music recognition technology from scratch and physically build the computing infrastructure needed to run it before companies like Google Cloud and AWS were around. They also had to convince mobile carriers to support a product category nobody had ever seen before. Inghelbrecht says even if each of those problems only had a 10% chance of working, the odds of Shazam surviving were practically zero.

    Whenever you moan , I wish I can Shazam it and listen to it whenever I'm down .....buh you just mumu 🤦🏾🤧

    @TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”

    @jayjjalen I know the plots with his own villains are already so much better than king Shazam or the Ras plot. Like his parasite 2 issue was even better.

  • ThinkyCrow
    Thinky Crow (@ThinkyCrow) reported

    @juicyrosie23 Hulk and Thor have a chance. Thor has canonically beaten Shazam, and Hulk has canonically fought Superman while NOT angry, and Supes admitted it took everything he had to take Hulk down. Stark… a scant possibility if he figures out kryptonite. Cap? Sorry, NO.

    @futurexhope This is actually true, yeah. The term AI is hard to define in itself and it can include tools like even Microsoft Word or Shazam if not delimited enough, but generative AI is a very specific part of it that is the core of the whole issue with AI these past years. Not that hard

  • FarrrlzBarkley
    Give Palestine a nuke (@FarrrlzBarkley) reported

    @OrevaZSN You could probably do this with existing Shazam by uploading a bunch of tracks of various car sounds to YouTube or something with titles indicating the problem and waiting for Shazam to index them

  • N1GHTFADE
    Double A (@N1GHTFADE) reported

    @pjjacung @TochukwuAgba @grok Grok got it wrong. This isnt Ai, its Shazam: Fury of the God's. Its alright. I think the first Shazam was better, but its not absolutely terrible for a sequel either.

  • ewgenijwolkow
    ewgenijwolkow (@ewgenijwolkow) reported

    what happened to @Shazam ? There was a time when you could hum a song for 5sec and it would find it. Now you can play 10sec of the actual song and it doesn’t find anything?! What a degradation of service

  • PossessionComic
    Possession Comics (@PossessionComic) reported

    @RandyS0725 @fentyheffa Roy Thomas was going to tie him into the Shazam continuity. I wonder if there are rights issues? Although I know he's appeared in some animated stuff since then.

  • vagefjoer

    Terrible to have a song stuck in your head but not being able to Shazam it with your brain

    @dailystarzam Retire Billy, have the Shazam mantel be passed down every couple years, because Billy staying a child ruins any semblance of a timeline. Also Shazam is a cool name

    I thought SBP was niched but then why ******** when I asked for some random comics (DNDM, Shazam, the SPECIFIC issue where Prime appeared) to the comic store guy he IMMEDIATELY clocked my *** that I wanted comics where Prime appeared and found the InfiniteCrisis hard cover for me

    onowu(kingmaker) (@soundnerd_) reported

    @MrSoundHive I agree I think the best case scenario is working the chorus on socials to see if it gathers any motion. Even radio, just to see if it triggers Shazam at all. No point having a 1M bill, 6 months down the line on a hunch. I won’t have thought that if you didn’t ask

    @ilysnoxy1 @ilyevooid @zarbehtvv I can't pull audio from the vid to Shazam it—Fortnite scrap looks clean tho. Drop some lyrics, beat description, or timestamp and I'll hunt it down for you! 🎵

    @UltraBiasedFan But Black Adam was also terrible, like most of their films at the time. Shazam 2, Aquaman 2.

  • Lucid_BirdApp
    Lucid (@Lucid_BirdApp) reported

    @Exalted_Speed This is like how Shazam had a sequel 5 years after the original. Billy always had a ticking clock, especially when going with a teenage take. And the ages for all the YA actors were a little all over the place, which is a more of problem there than for the Avenegers

    Shazam had no answer for blade 2. Close to infallible normally, 3 wrong answers tonight!! Just put on pulp fiction and it had no problem picking up tracks from that.

  • CulturedSouls
    Cultured.souls (@CulturedSouls) reported

    @VesselorConnor @empatheticcain Cancelled after 15 issues. The book was a direct continuation of the curse of Shazam, which Johns just finishing being an executive producer for the movie. So it really seems like Johns was fully onboard with that version of the character to me.

    @tiktok_us how about you make it so we can hold down somewhere on the video to find what song is playing. Use @Shazam. All I ask is one payment of 100k

    :) (@marcopoloed) reported

    Played a song and asked my roommate to guess who the artist is. Guy cheekily pulls his phone out to make it seem like he’s texting someone and i saw his hand move from the top of the screen to shazam it. Puts down his phone a few secs later of fake brainstorming he gets it right
