Yo, facial recognition is utter bullshit at times. This "person" has been recognized by my NAS. Still cannot figure out, which of my relatives this hit resembles most...

For some reason my wife's Google photo face recognition thinks our grey cats are my sister in law.

I always thought pasta was italian, but turns out it is more closely related to asians.

I have never connected to pasta on such an emotional level before

I took photos at a friend’s wedding and most of the photos of his new wife had her wearing a lace veil.

I dumped all the photos into Picasso (precursor to Google Photos) and it did its background facial ID on everything. Then it suggested more photos that might also be tagged as her.

The extra photos were all just tables with tablecloths on them. It thought she was a tablecloth.

I purposely take awful photos from time to time and I didn’t realize I could set the key photo in Apple’s Photos app. Without fail it chose the absolute worst photos of people to the point I cracked up for several hours after seeing the People albums it generated.

I wanna know if the algorithm believes the photo is of a person named Rotini Fiorentina

I had taken a photo of the pile of junk in my home.

AI facial recognition in ACDSee swore it could pick up my father's face in the jumble.

I feel like I was visited by a ghost.

Rest in peace, dad. (sigh) No, I know you would not approve of this mess and would tell me to hurry up and clean the thing up.

Nobody:

Absolutely nobody:

AI: "Hey look that pile of garbage looks like your dead dad lol"

We're all worried about robots taking over, but maybe they're just gonna be real dicks for no reason
