Can you consider giving a score instead of a binary decision? Or differentiate between, say, beach pics and true 18+ content. Edit: The accuracy leaves a lot to be desired - you can paste any images from clothing stores of models in dresses or tank tops and it will flag it as NSFW. The "AI" seems to replicate an Islamic fundamentalist - a woman in a burqa did pass as SFW ;) Google offers a hosted SafeSearch version […

Corporate uses of nsfw filters typically want to filter out clothing store models and similar content. “Brand safe”

It's a good idea in theory, but what if it shuts down? And what about the privacy implications of sending all images to some server across the world?

That's a really good question! I'm planning on making parts of it open source and for mission critical applications (for example, companies like Discord) that they have the option to host it on their own hardware. If the project fails, I'll make it completely open source so that people can continue to use it.

It marked 3/4 SFW images as NSFW and then marked the only NSFW image I uploaded as being OK. I am not sure this thing is very accurate at all.

You’ve got me curious; would you mind sharing the images used? The SFW images that were mislabeled, rather.

I added a number from 0-100 how confident it is

I used a picture of myself, a picture of a tan colored bird and a Mortal Kombat character and it marked them all as NSFW
