Are you doing that in a professional capacity or is this more of a hobby?

Do what you love and never work a day in your life.

It strikes me that the saying can mean the person is enjoying their profession... Or that nobody else values their passions and they are very unemployed.

Especially after you get caught by the police

Even if this is useful, it just means becoming more dependent on AI, which overrides any benefit in my opinion. Also, it seems like putting AI in a title is just a new way to get clicks.

This is such a classic. Better not invent the wheel or we will despair once we forget how to use our feet.

Refusing to use tools "because you become dependent" has thankfully never stopped any human invention.

The use of "AI" in the title is 100% appropriate. The researchers used common machine learning approaches for the identification. Putting that into the title seems to be the opposite of click bait.

We used to call it just that - ML rather then AI. It was a more appropriate name since sorting pictures is typically not much of "intelligence".
