YorkshirePudding Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I don't know if I have done the link to the photo correctly but this was the first one I tried... I agree they look ???????????????????????????? but to call all the dancers urinals seemed a bit harsh! https://www.dropbox.com/s/emt1yotaara82km/2016-04-14%2013.25.53.png?dl=0 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa O`Brien Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Sorry,I don`t understand what this is ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshirePudding Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 It's a website from Microsoft Lisa, that is meant to automatically caption photos for you, but it doesn't seem to know what anything is and gives ridiculous captions as a consequence - as in trog's post. I don't seem to be able to make the link turn into a photo in my post, and although the link works for me I don't know if it works for everyone? My picture was of swan lake (original photo here) http://globedancer.com/swan-lake-pacific-northwest-ballet/ When I put it into the captionbot website it captioned it "I'm not really confident but I think it is a row of urinals and they seem " Not a rip roaring success I would say...! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 But hilarious! Your Dropbox link worked for me YP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa O`Brien Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Oh I think I get it now. But what does the face expression mean? [sorry i`m probably being really thick !] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Every photo of dd in any ballet pose was apparently "a woman holding a frisbee" and "a woman jumping for a frisbee". The poor bot seems to have ballet and frisbee confused. At least dd was "a woman" though - I tried it with a photo of Osipova and she was "a man jumping for a frisbee"! Poor Natalia - must be the short hair! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowan Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Well, for this ballet picture, I got the message, "I think this may be inappropriate content, so I won't show it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowan Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 But what does the face expression mean? The software has a part that is designed for "emotion recognition", which tries to analyse facial expressions to detect anger, contempt, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness or surprise. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/apr/14/captionbot-microsoft-latest-ai-experiment-it-isnt-racist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trog Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 Yes the dropbox link work just fine. I got the same comment as rowan, when I gave it a picture of Lenda Murray - she is a famous body builder in case you don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melody Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 So basically, between this thing and the Twitter bot that went Nazi after a short time in the real world, it would appear that we're not in danger of being totally replaced by AI any time soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaffa Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 The highlight of the year at RBS, the defile, is 'a group of people standing on top of a surfboard,' whereas ballet students in other countries, doing arabesques in their white tutus, are already 'jetliners.' Which have the best chance of becoming urinals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveclassics Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 (edited) I tried it with a photo from Apollo and got 'woman with tennis racquet'! See https://www.dropbox.com/s/iu9j36hl0sblzqa/Apollo%20with%20muses.jpg?dl=0 And, no, it's not the one you think it is.

Fonty Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I haven't tried any myself, but these are hilarious. Right up there with the very, very odd subtitles that frequently come up on the programmes being shown when I am in the gym. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
