The inspiration behind this bot came from everyday frustrations. I like learning about things. When someone tells me about something unfamiliar, I Google it. When I hear a song on the radio I like, I identify it through Soundhound or Shazam. But how about when I want to know the species of a plant, breed of a dog or model of a car? How am I supposed to describe it to Google?
That, is how WTFIT was born! Right now, it works well in identifying every day objects and animals. However as the community grows, the platform will become smarter and smarter, and be able to to identify even the toughest of images!
@mommi84 I've played around with Google search a lot, and it works very well when the image exists on Google images already. However, it doesn't seem to do as well with images you just take a photo, and the similar photos can sometimes be totally off. And thanks!
@vallieres@nagra__ you guys should check out Microsoft Cognitive Services, Google Cloud Vision and Cloudsight. They all have REST APIs for that purpose!
@techno246@nagra__ yes, I did have great success with Caffe from Berkley. Sadly we did not go through with the feature using it. We were hoping to crowdsource 1 year of photo and human taging as a baseline and have it fully automated afterwards.
