That sounds interesting, it's funny if you really can use their own models as base and do that. For the platform sake, Google offers also SaaS where you can train and evaluate your own models but then the base model is something you have to provide yourself

EDIT: I tried to google that up but couldn't find anything. Could you provide a link for that

Hmm ok, yeah apparently you can leverage their API's and teach new labels for your own data.

That is great and will definetly help with problems where your task isn't just to recognize cats and dogs the only downside is that you are giving your data away and it will also help your competitors.
