In russian, "sisi" is a variation of "tits". Is there a job/services that confirm that branding is appropriate across different languages? Seems like a non trivial problem to solve.

In cantonese it’s what a toddler might call poop

A lot of the prodemently used programming languages and libraries have references to feces if you speak Farsi.

that's a nice start, maybe does 99% of the job, but to be 100% sure, you still need additional (manual?) checks.

it's also the name of egypt's authoritarian leader https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdel_Fattah_el-Sisi

Yes this is the first thing that came to mind for me, strange name choice

Oh and if you want to run something locally on your iphone you can use my app I am still testing:

Uses only 1 core 100% under linux, can this be changed? 10 images, each ~20 kb size, took more than 10 minutes to index, is that normal without GPU-acceleration?

No it is not normal, I only tested x64/arm64 macs, I will try on linux.

What’s normal? On your Apple silicon.

This is cool. Is there also a way to show contents of the image as indexed? i.e. image 1 has cat and dog

There are a lot of tool/apps that let you “search images” but not much that lets you just as easily “read images”

Wow that’s atrocious performance. So there’s no chance to use this on real photos

It’s not that straightforward due to spelling. Does that catch køk? Tihts? P. Nus? For a non English swear word, I had to ask 3 times and about a specific language to finally make that connection.
