My wife and I have a running joke about the Seek app: "Dicots. It's always dicots."
Too often, pointing Seek at a plant results in "dicots", which is about half the flowering plants out there.
- ajkjk 2y agoI feel like seek's IDs are not as good as they should be given the state of ML. Maybe a dataset problem but still.
- nkrisc 2y agoSeason likely plays a factor too. There are many plants that more or less look identical (to the untrained eye) until they either bloom or grow large enough.
