AI Thread Summary
Recent advancements in visual recognition technology have significantly improved the ability of machines to recognize faces and objects. Current algorithms leverage deep learning techniques, enabling computers to achieve high accuracy rates in facial recognition tasks, often surpassing human performance in specific scenarios. The development of large datasets and enhanced neural networks has contributed to this progress, allowing machines to learn and generalize from vast amounts of visual data. Despite these advancements, challenges remain, particularly in recognizing faces under varying conditions such as lighting and angles, as well as ethical concerns regarding privacy and bias in recognition systems. Overall, while machines have made remarkable strides in visual recognition, the complexity of human-like perception still presents a formidable challenge.

What are the latest results in visual recognition by machines? How good have computers become in recognizing faces, etc.?

No answers? Come on.

The reason why I'm interested is because visual recognition abilities are always cited first when comparing machine and human intelligence.

Recognizing things gives the human brain, even the very young one, no difficulties, but it's a huge computational and often impossible task for artificial devices.

Well, I think you all knew that.

So has there been progress?
 
When you first posted I googled on "face recognition software" and found a ton of stuff. Why don't you try it?

I am reading Nicholas Wade's book A Troublesome Inheritance. Please let's not make this thread a critique about the merits or demerits of the book. This thread is my attempt to understanding the evidence that Natural Selection in the human genome was recent and regional. On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...
