There are a lot of services like this (Google Cloud Vision, IBM Watson, CloudSight, Clarifai, Imagga) but I'm yet to see one that lets me provide my own dataset. That's what I'm most interested in. So far the only solution I know of is to take Google's Inception net and train/host it myself somewhere.

Try this - Clarifai is run my Matthew Zeiler, who's imagenet results really kickstarted the whole deep learning craze.

Metamind used to let you do that. Clarifai lets you host models as well AFAIK.

Pricing (for first million images / month) Google Cloud Vision $1.50 per 1,000 images[1] Amazon Rekognition $1.00 per 1,000 images[2] Interesting that when Google Cloud Vision first came out it was $5 per 1,000 images (for label detection), but they reduced it on Nov 15, 2016.

Microsoft's offering is $1.50/1000 calls as well. https://www.microsoft.com/cognitive-services/en-us/pricing

Will this help me tag and classify my thousands of personal photos? Once it recognizes a face will it tag it and identify it the next time I call it with the same person on another picture?

Google Photos does that.

This comes rather fast on the heels of Yahoo releasing their NSFW source code

AWS Rekognition's core technology is coming from Rekognition.com, and the company Orbeus behind it was acquired by Amazon in 2015. https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&e...

Imagga can help you with this. Http://imagga.com/solutions/custom-categorization.html

If you guys want to see an example of this in action I made a stupid little demo. You can tweet @AWSCloudNinja a selfie and it will replace your face with a ninja mask. I'm waiting to post the code until the new boto models are out but it's all in python and lambda functions. (I work for AWS)

Can it put fruit hats on kitties?

No but I code a thing that would put hats on people. https://mrmonksy.com/p/ProjectFunnyHats#.WD9gybIrLRY (It was a project for a class)

Clarifai's web interface for training with your own images is great, although a little slow — but that could be my computer.

I've used their standard/general model for classifying most of the images for the search on my site, and would love to use custom models for various side project ideas I have, but the price is way too much for me ($0.46 per concept, per month).
