Guys, its a joke, a meme. Some guy makes these fake notices like the woman who sweats on your couch, maggots appear and you are supposed to eat them to heal yourself.
amazon spent a lot of money on trying to do this and then found out the technology doesn’t exist and outsourced it to india
Some companies do outsource their “AI” to India, but automated checkout tech is actually good enough to be used in production now. A plain white background with separated fruits like this is exactly the environment where it works best.

not really.
amazon’s just walk out is the leader in this area, and it came out recently that the bulk of transactions, 7 in 10, are offloaded for manual review in india
amazon of course denied the claim, but so in vague corporate speak, and failed to provide figures to counter the 7-in-10. they also did confirm that they’re scaling back just walk out. i don’t think those things would be the case if this technology worked as they were hoping.
That was for automated checkout. Video people counters have been around for years. I’ve worked for companies that used them to count customers by department.
this isn’t counting people. this is working out which item or items people pick up from a shelf and decide to keep, if any. that isn’t just similar to the automated checkout problem: it’s the same exact problem. if anything, this iteration of it is more challenging because a blueberry is a fair amount smaller than a tin of beans.
If lemmites didn’t have the social skills of a mosquito at a funeral they might be able to pick up on the INCREDIBLY subtle joke here.

Wow, I absolutely detest people like this. How sad and pathetic does your life have to be to be doing something like this. Why can’t people just be normal???! Imagine if everyone went around spreading misinformation like that guy. Plums are not berries, people! Don’t let big berry claim this juicy deliciousness as their own!!!
At what point do we say that science is wrong about berries
You can’t look at me with a straight face and say a banana is a berry.
Technically, a banana is the whole big-ass thing that grows on the tree. What you know as a banana is what is called a finger of a banana.
Speaking of juicy imagine the shits you would have after eating 27 fucking plums
This is basically the algorithms of the big tech companies but with extra steps. I guess it greatly illustrates how absurd they actually are and how weird it is to just shrug them off.
The best part? Nobody can agree if advertising ala commercials actually works.
“Nobody can agree”?
Is this kind of like how nobody can agree on whether we landed on the moon or whether climate change is real?
Anecdotal, but I’ve boycotted products or stores because of annoying ads in the past. And even clever or entertaining ads eventually get annoying if they are shown too much.
I block most ads these days, so longer contribute to the negative ad returns like I used to, but I am curious about how many others like me are out there.
That sounds like misinterpretation of studies if I had to guess. If anything maybe it would be how well they work at certain investment levels with breakpoints where it is no longer worth putting in additional money, or the efficacy of CERTAIN types of advertising. But IF they work at all? I am highly suspect of that even being a question. Brands that are well advertised are well known, and people who aren’t bothered to do research into every single product they buy are more likely to buy a product they have heard of before.
And if you’re an independent creative, like author, artist, musician, developer, and you DON’T advertise, you will sell zero copies of your work.
