I don't think the person who originally posted this was saying it was a negative, in fact, she said she laughed outloud until she cried.
I think others are making more out of this than was intended. It is very humorous and should be taken that way. Honesty is, after all, the best policy. I was sent an image that KNFB Reader could not get any words from, but iDentifi got all but two words. The image was a sign at a store that said: "No senior discounts. You've had twice as long to get the money." Later, Richard -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Pablo C. Morales Sent: Friday, December 2, 2016 4:11 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Identifi The perception that being old, or over weight, or short, or blind as something bad, is just opinions. The app is going to see that there is people with gray hair, and it is a true like we are blind. Now if we perceive that being old or being blind is something bad, it is our problem. I don't see as a problem that the app detail these kind of things. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Friday, December 2, 2016 4:41 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Identifi It may have been developed by a young man (to me 17 or 18 is not a kids any more) but I'm sure he doesn't control the actual descriptions. I don't know how the app does what it does, but it is obviously comparing the pictures to some sort of database and then it makes intelligent choices as to what it "sees". -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Andy Baracco Sent: Friday, December 02, 2016 1:12 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Identifi Keep in mind that it was developed by a kid, to whom anyone over the age of 30 is probably "old".

Much better than KNFB. And it did a good job on pictures, too. But it was brutally honest! The description for a picture of me, my husband, my sister and her husband was "old people couples picture". I laughed until I cried! Guess the gray hair gave it away!
