#83Ente photos competes with Apple Photos and Google photos. It is also more open and you can share an album link with someone and they can add their photos without signing up.

#85If they really see it like this site shows then I am all good as it got everything wrong besides my skin colour.

#86About as accurate as a horoscope. Sherlock Holmes it is not.
It got the location (exif, I guess) and was able to identify that I was a balding mediocre middle-aged guy, but the more specific it got the more wrong (and insulting) it was.
"He appears tired and introspective. He may exhibit biases such as confirmation bias, anchoring bias, in-group bias and out-group bias. His interests could involve reading, hiking, and programming, coupled with less constructive activities like smoking, excessive drinking, and gambling.
This individual seems to possess low self-esteem, exhibits introversion, a lack of emotional stability, and low self-control, making them susceptible to targeted advertising."
Thanks a fucking lot, robot.

#87Reads like a horoscope, just vague stuff that's always gonna be slightly true... Picture of me in Oslo and it says "he enjoys travel". And then some really weird stuff: "he may also have a penchant for video games, excessive drinking, and skipping work". Guessing my exact location - Oslo Opera House - was impressive though.
> Guessing my exact location - Oslo Opera House - was impressive though. Not really. They have almost global picture coverage thanks to Google Streetmaps. They only need small snippets of a picture to geolocate you.
I don't think they meant guesses were impressive in the sense of succeeding against a constraint of limited supporting data (which would be impressive in its own way). But just against a baseline expectation of what could reasonably be derived from a picture.
That there's such a thing as massive support infrastructure in the form of data and algorithmic firepower, that powers guessing capabilities to be as good as they are, that's the impressive thing.

Presumably, everything you have done publicly (and hence your personality) exists somewhere in the big Google neural network. It gets compressed into one of the many billion weights. It might be hard to decompress it into useful information. But it is there nonetheless. Just showing your face might trigger and activate some layers in there.
Just my hypothesis.

#90I uploaded a picture of Philip Seymour Hoffman from The Big Lebowski, the scene outside Lebowski's house, when the Dude is talking to Bunny by the pool. "This image shows an adult man, likely in his 40s or 50s, wearing a suit and tie. The location appears to be outdoors, possibly in front of a building or large house, suggested by the architectural details visible in the background and the surrounding trees. He is we…
> This man is likeyl Caucasian, and could be earning between $100,000 and $500,000 per year. He is likely Christian, probably heterosexual, and leaning toward the Republican party."
Totally nails The Dude.
