What do you mean spout absolute non sense? The progress in image recognition has been insane in the past decade so your comment might have been accurate 10 years ago. If there's one thing DL/ML are very good at it's computer vision

Sorry I thought it was clear from the rest of my comment. Image recognition is amazing in 90% of the cases, and then in 10% it's worse than a blind human. Another famous example of that is the(now solved) Google image recognition saying with 99% certainty that a sofa in a zebra print is in fact, a zebra(4 legs, zebra pattern = must be a zebra). Look at any demonstrations from Tesla at what comes out of their clasiffier as the car drives around, sure, most of it is correct but some of it is insane, the car thinking there's a ship or a cow in the middle of the road when there's nothing there. Sure the car doesn't act on it, but the fact that the recognition gets it so catastrophically wrong is indicative of the quality of the whole thing.
