I tried to guess an album covers decade:

You are doing the fast.ai course too, right? [edit: looking at your code, no, you did not :)]
I chose my challenge to maximize my learning through something challenging enough it might fail. It's only right 60-70% of the time.
What I learned:
- Binning in to decades might not be Ideal. Something from 79 and 80 is more similar than something from 71 and 79. I guess a better approach would have been smaller bins (3 or more per decade) and than rounding the result to the decade.
- Be careful how you gather your learning data. I pulled from the google image search with something like "album OR LP cover 20s/30s/40s..."; this has ~20% "best of the XXs" collections in them where the cover was designed in a much later decade. I should have searched for "1920 OR 1921 OR 1922...".
