Some of my marketing requires that I scrape thousands and thousands of images to use. Once I do that I would have to manually look at them and delete any that were off topic for my needs or contained watermarks. I recently had someone make me a python bot that uses the amazon rekognition api. I can't express how much easier this has made things. It saves me countless hours of manual labor. It's amazing how accurate it is. Only drawback is it costs $1 per 1000 images. I tried tesseract ocr before and it was not nearly as accurate but it could perhaps become better with lots of training but for now I'm happy with rekogntion.

It can do videos and images and even analyze sentiment (facial expressions). Check it out. You can play with the demo if you have an aws account. https://aws.amazon.com/rekognition/

I thought I would make this post to show how AI can help your marketing efforts. I'm really excited for the future now that I've incorporated deep earning into my workflows.
 
This technology is very interesting thanks for the link mate.
Btw what IM business requires to scan thousands of images a day?

Wow this is so incredibly clever! I just ran into this the other day on the amazon app. I didn't know it existed. I was like a kid with a new toy.

Why not just find something other than Amazon Rekognition to use as the basis....there are several other options out there. I am about to get a Visual Search Engine built to better manage my image database....this sounds exactly like the sort of thing you should be doing?.
 
ok so time to delete all the pictures of me on the internet :-/

So you are keyword searching online sites, downloading mass results then uploading into rekognition?....if not, how are you doing it?

I'm downloading thousands of images on my local pc and then running rekogntion using python to organize and screen them (delete ones I don't want). Python uploads them to rekognition and then it returns the appropriate values which tells python what to do with the image. This saves me probably 15 hours of manual labor each time I do a batch of 50k images.
 
Nice, this opened my eyes -- I own a small agency and very fascinated about AI and how it relates to marketing. Are there any other similar things you encounter?
