The AI rated me a 4 out of 10 and struggled to figure out whether I was a man or a woman. There goes my self esteem for the day.
Can't switch to front camera on pixel 3a?
LOL funny how people here gibber about privacy but are more than happy to give their face to some rando website. Y'all are fucking muppets.
99% of the cases i would agree with you,I don't even buy laptops with integrated webcams for this very reason; However, websites with the .eu domain are subject to EU laws (obviously, since you need to be an eu citizen to have such a domain). Even though i'm not an EU fan (far from it actually),it would be very weird if they'd have such a website and then not comply with data requests for deletion/download, especiall…
Forget buttons, dialogs, beautifully designed pages. Future UIs should have videos of a person talking telling you what is happening and what to do next!
HN: "delete Facebook" Also HN: "show your face to this random site so an algorithm can tell you if you're hot or not"
Maybe it's because programmers tend to think categorically, but I find HN frequently has this problem where people are freaking out like "why is it okay when Mozilla does X but you don't want Google to do X?!" as though we're supposed to treat every question as some sort of sui generis scenario divorced from all history and context.
History matters, context matters. I (generally) trust academics and democratically-elected governments, and I (generally) distrust giant ad-tech companies and authoritarian states.
This app underestimated my age by a decade. I'm flattered. It almost matches with how old I feel I am.
BMI was way off but the metric itself is such a crude generalization so this is probably excusable.
Mine was predicted much lower than it really is, but I'm lean with big muscles, so that is to be expected, I suppose.

I mean, it's an EU-funded academic site designed to raise awareness of privacy issues, so I'm inclined to believe them when they say they aren't keeping any of this data. Maybe it's because programmers tend to think categorically, but I find HN frequently has this problem where people are freaking out like "why is it okay when Mozilla does X but you don't want Google to do X?!" as though we're supposed to treat every…
This is a site made by one guy, not the EU.
Ah, this one couldn't find my face. It kept focusing on my left ear and gave it a 5 for attractiveness. Then it couldn't find my face any longer. There was another fun one posted here months ago [1]. I wanna say I'm disappointed, but I'd be lying. I'm happy that A.I. cannot detect us black people. I'll need to do something about that left ear though.

It started with 5, then I kept getting closer to the camera until it was at 7.5 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
