IT’S hard to come up with a quiz question that cannot be easily answered with an online search, but we think we’ve found one.
Can you name the Irish Derby winner pictured above? Don’t bother asking AI. We uploaded the photo to a top-of-the-range artificial intelligence application and it confidently answered: ”The search results point strongly to The Minstrel. The photo’s style and colours are consistent with 1977 at the Curragh. The Minstrel wore the pink/salmon silks of owner Robert Sangster, which match what’s visible on the jockey in the photo. The jockey is Lester Piggott.”
