AI has been a super hot topic in 2017, some have high hope that it will make our lives much more enjoyable, some have concerns that it might one day take over the world and destroy the human race. One way or another, the world is changing, and we need to adapt.
As the most advanced social network for dogs, we’re dedicated to bringing the best services to our members.
So what’s Wepet doing with AI?
We have implemented a new feature that utilises the cutting-edge Google Vision API service to helps us recognise the breed of your beloved friends, here’s how it works:
After creating a dog profile, if you upload an avatar for the dog without previously specifying the breed, we’ll ask Google Vision service to analyse the image data and provide us with a list of possible breeds. The data will then be cross-referenced with our own database to get rid of some irrelevant information, and leave the user with a set of options where they tick a (few) boxes and update the dogs breed automatically.
Sounds complicated? In short, we can now magically guess the breed of your dog.
Don’t believe us? Login to Wepet and upload an avatar for your dog, you’ll see how awesome it is.
