Have you heard of the site They See Your Photos (https://theyseeyourphotos.com/)?

It uses something called Google Vision to analyse photos, extracting marketing information and coming up with predictions.

It's creepy.

I'm more pro-AI than the average guy, but sometimes even I am worried by the things it does.

I loaded a random photo from my phone; here's the analysis.

I've been playing it yesterday and it seems to over interpret some things and you can see aspects of its training data. Send a photo of anyone in a rundown part of Bristol and it describes them as being into "urban exploration" as "living in a rundown part of a city with alcohol and drug issues" doesn't quite seem to occur to it -though it does get close. And then goes on to suggest products to try and sell them.

I think the real strength will come when it has a number of photos from the same source to analyse. It came up with a pretty good profile of me from one photo (apart from the online arguing thing), but I can't imagine how good it'll be if it analysed my whole photo roll. Which, now that I think of it, is all stored on ... Google photos.

Shit.
