      Randall Monroe has provided me with weekly nibbles of entertainment for nearly 2 decades. But this was inspired by his style, not created by him.

            If by “easy” you mean someone else already spent 5 years and a nice chunk of cash training a model for it, which you get to use. And if you accept that it will not be accurate across all possible species and environments, only very specific subsets.

              You’re right, but you could say the same about the National Park GIS lookup.

              We spent the five years training the model. Manually. With Captcha data.

              Now we’re teaching it not to run traffic signals, hit motorcycles or busses, or try to drive up stairs.

                I’m waiting for the day Google Recaptcha will ask me “is that traffic light red?” and after a couple of seconds “hurry up, I’m approaching the intersection!”

          In the 60s, Marvin Minsky assigned a couple of undergrads to spend the summer programming a computer to use a camera to identify objects in a scene. He figured they'd have the problem solved by the end of the summer. Half a century later, we're still working on it.

          For a generous definition of “original”.

          Edit: very generous, since it’s just new text on the second panel in https://xkcd.com/1269/

        A bit of reverse image searching reveals this was the original XKCD comic (more specifically, the top middle panel): https://xkcd.com/1269/
