Harvard machine learning experiment

It's a bit abusive of the Harvard brand to throw the name in a post just so you can get some training data for model. At least include a writeup of what you're doing so people who click through get something out of it too.

looks like he's doing a machine learning to determine what images are aesthetically pleasing to people?

or if the order of images determine how much more likely it would be liked.

but yeah, abusive(???) in using a name with no explanation of relationship, no explanation of purpose after participation, etc.

Exactly...isn't that what you're paying for?
