It’s sometimes striking how fast some crazy ideas\u00a0go viral nowadays… and the tiger selfies on Tinder<\/a> \ud83d\ude42 make no exception, going far enough to escalate<\/a>\u00a0to the attention<\/a> of the\u00a0New York State Assembly.<\/p>\n

Funny (or not), taking selfies with tigers, and eventually using them as profile pictures, is not allowed in NY any more, unless you want to pay the $500 fine for a few seconds of glory.<\/p>\n

Being an image recognition company, especially focused on auto-tagging<\/a>, it seems to us like a piece of cake to detect if there is a tiger on the image! Here is an\u00a0example:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Tinder,<\/a>
Tinder, tigers, and tagging<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

You can see the\u00a0sample test\u00a0here<\/a>\u00a0and upload\/paste a tiger selfie (not yours of course) to try it out.<\/p>\n

And this\u00a0could be used via API access by Tinder to warn users… or by the state assembly to detect them \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Just another\u00a0(weird) validation how widespread image recognition could be nowadays… In any types of apps and use-cases, as images are becoming the ultimate way to communicate and express ourselves so easily, thanks to the cameras in our\u00a0pockets.<\/p>\n

Have an awesome idea that would greatly\u00a0benefit from automated image tagging? Just sign up<\/a> for free here<\/a> and give our auto-tagging API<\/a> a try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
