The fact that it got it wrong was one of the reasons I picked that example: it's much more interesting that way.

If you feed it a photo with a clear landmark it will get the location exactly right.

If you feed it a photo that's a close up of a brick wall it won't have a chance.

What's interesting is how well it can do on this range of tasks. If you don't think that's at least interesting I'm not sure what I can do for you.






I think you may have misunderstood my comment. I think it’s quite interesting. I was responding to parent who is horrified that AI can violate privacy like this:

  > This tool just makes it easier for weirdos to achieve their goals at stalking women and kids.
  > Crazy that this is even allowed.
I was pointing out that to not “allow” using context clues to interpret an image location, something any well-trained human can also do and is in fact an active hobby/esport, is a bit silly.

Oops sorry about that, I read your comment out of context.
