#2This is neat. I bet Facebook or OkCupid are sitting on all sorts of click data that could be used to develop tools for helping people make their photos look better. (Even if, personally, I can't wait for a cultural backlash against internet narcissism...)

#5DNN is a key technology of the future. I highly recommend the education program Professor Karpathy mentions at the end of this post. All are excellent and free.

#6I would like to see a deep dream selfie ...
Feed it an initial picture (noise, clouds, a selfie) and then backwards manipulate the input to maximize the assessed quality of the "selfie".
I guess that would look pretty funny.

#7One thing I always found interesting is Lecun is credited with developing covnets, but Hinton is apparently credited with scaling them and showing the world how great they are in the paper from 2012 - why was Hinton's group (Toronto) able to publish these ground breaking results before Lecun's group (NYU)

Makes a bit of sense, in combination with the "be female" advice, cutting off the forehead puts the center of the photograph closer to her cleavage, and typically shows off her entire chest.
