Can’t blame the program....it is what it is. Call a spade a spade and a gorilla a gorilla.

I did read some of it. I got my fill of “F” word for this season in about 15 seconds.

Looking at the picture in question, they look nothing like a gorilla, except for their skin color...
Basically a normal looking girl with a guy in the background...
Yea, Google really screwed up here...
It still is quite humorous...

Don’t worry, fellas. White people are currently being labeled by society as ‘racists’ even when that isn’t the case.
To: BitWielder1
Oh you can bet EVERYTHING is racist. If you do not understand, Al and them will be happy to explain why.

i would truly LOVE to see the code, the algorithms, the criteria and the parameters that made that judgement

Apologize for what a program does? The program is only carrying out a set of instructions. If there is a resemblance, the program will flag it. Tell the individuals to stop looking like gorillas.

Oops. I used Google this morning before I saw this? Am I going to jail? Or can I just send a check to Al Sharpton?

Google always blames the algorithms. They (people) are are always all innocent-like. It was the machine that done it.
Can you see the coding, the criteria and the parameters?
Of course not. Those are business secrets, and if they were forced to reveal them...super-bad doubleplus ungood would occur.
That's what the memory hole is for? Helps to forget. would Rev. Al fit down that thing?
To: ilovesarah2012
Non-story. Anyone who has any idea how hard it is for computers to accurately do pattern recognition would not be surprised by this. Computers are NOT people. They are really, really stupid.
One thing computers do really poorly is rendering human faces. No matter how hard they try, they just can't fool people with CGI faces. For instance, if you saw the movie "Gravity" (recommended IMO), everything you see was completely rendered through CGI. ... except the faces!
Is it any surprise that they aren't as good as recognising them?

I'd have to see their profile pics, but there may have been some validity.
After all, seen a pic of Sheila Jackson-Lee?
