> who takes a photo then wants to know it was a photo of? I find myself doing this rather frequently. The scenario described in the article is quite common for me: capturing a photo of a plant and utilizing an existing classification service to determine its identity. It could be driven by mere curiosity or practical concerns like identifying whether a plant is poison ivy. Wildlife identification also falls into this category. Recognizing different bird species can be challenging, especially when it's not a familiar species like a blue jay. I often find myself engaging in this activity quite regularly! EDIT: I should also point out this happens with other forms of ‘unknown object identification’. There’s an entire subreddit that’s quite popular devoted to just crowd-sourcing identification based on a picture.
