    According to my graphs they don’t seem to correlate at all.

    I love it. The more colorful correlations serve to chip away at the robust correlation is causation illusion.

      My favorite that I use in my stats class is Nic Cage movies and drowning. Its the same as Ice Cream Sales and Drowning, but I get to use images of Nic Cage.

This is a community just for some fun based on the spurious correlations website made by a university student. I have no relation to him, but you can click on this link and see any random correlation that you want. I’m going to post some of these for Lemmy people for awhile, until I get bored. https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious/random If you do actually follow the link you will see not only the graph but an ai generated explanation and an AI scholarly paper that supports these correlations. who knows what is going to happen when the AIs pickup these hundreds of scholarly papers and put them in their training data.
