- jakub_h 11y agoI'm actually quite pleasantly surprised that we've already reached this level of functionality. Imagine aliens coming to our planet and starting classifying stuff on Earth. The idea that alien intelligence without some seeded knowledge would mistakenly make this inference doesn't seem beyond the realm of possibility.
- wlesieutre 11y agoIf StreetView blurring is anything to go by, it can't tell the difference between a human face and a brick wall. I'd excuse that by saying it's tuned to be extremely conservative and not accidentally miss someone, but it routinely misses faces too. Even our purpose-built image recognition has a long way to go.
