I use AI in my philatelic work every single day and the time saving I realize from it allows me to donate more of time to other philatelic projects and efforts such as moderating this community.

And using this thread as a sole context, any collector who can use AI enhanced image searches to lookup a stamp/cover in hand or to learn more about a stamp/cover in hand has a greatly increased their capabilities and are saving significant amounts of time.

Would you support children using AI during spelling bees, math competitions, weekly quizzes and other tests. What about AI for performing essays, dissertations, political speeches, arguments, fact based or not, meant to change opinion. Use in card game tournaments such as poker, blackjack, chess and Jeopardy were all have the same level of information and understanding. This reduces the need for education as everyone would have access to the same information. No one can claim discrimination just properly fix blame on their own poor performance by self with the same information access as others.

Then there is AI and machines to replace human low level or rote workers, but that becomes too political to discuss.

The context here is using AI and image searches as an aid in IDing stamps; but feel free to post in one of the existing other existing AI threads or start a new thread.

As my final opinion on the broader topic of AI in this thread; AI is a tool. I see no issue with using printed books (new tech in 16th century) as an aid in teaching and learning. I see no issue with using a slide ruler (in classrooms during the Cold War era) as an aid in teaching and learning. I see no issue with using a calculator (in classrooms by the 1980s) as an aid in teaching and learning.

How about a clear definition of AI?
I'm getting the impression that we're not all talking about the same things.

To me artificial intelligence is the ability of machines or software to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence. This includes understanding language, recognizing images, making decisions, or solving problems. AI also covers many various technologies, such as machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, computer vision, speech recognition, and more.

For your contest, AI combined with user (human) customization results in correct answers for most weeks.

If that's the reality of life now, I guess I can't object to it, since it is so important to living now. No hard feelings.
In re my quizzes, I could probably try to make them more difficult for AI. When there's no more fun...for anyone...is when the quizzes probably should end.

The contests are a lot of fun! I look forward to Friday's post. I still wish Vayolene played but maybe one day.

I have used reverse image stuff a number of times for various projects and curiousities (including autographs) and it isn't always as easy as one might think, especially with only a fraction of a photo being present. At least not for my limited knowledge anyway. I'm sure there's other tools but sometimes guesses go well into Day 2 so..

Anyways keep it up!!

I see no reason to stop, I do not think that anyone who is currently participating is showing signs of winning most of the contests. We have previously discussed this issue at least a year ago and you made images smaller.
And in my opinion if the contest helps hobbyists learn to do better searches, whether it is in a hard copy catalog/album of online, that is a good thing.
