Smh . Is it wrong to b a black?

. No dear. Their ignorance is their problem, not ours or yours. Live your life happily and don't condone nonsense from them.

Pls ask the Google and bastards called whites if they recognise morals, senses, well cultured, dignity etc, tell the whites that those are ascribed to all black of the world and not for the demons called white creating problems to d world, legalising gay, lesbianism among other vices.

Black people are gorrilas. Look at the zoo called Nigeria and you see it everywhere.

Nigerian Muslims told to kill their fellow blacks because of religion, stupid people give a tenth of their earnings to so called men of God. The government steals money meant for millions of people. People cannot reason on their own, the rely on the religion, culture, news of the white people.

Same in other parts of Africa

Look at the blacks in USA - stupid, lazy and dumb.

Google is spot on - Blacks are gorillas.

SMH!

And who is killing in the north? Blacks. Who are burning churches? blacks. Who are deceiving people in the name of religion? blacks. Just look at the way blacks behave. Have you travelled out of Nigeria? Compare the way people conduct themselves. How orderly they are while waiting for their turns. Blacks behave like animals...



Until you guys change, you will forever be seen as animals

If you had any bit of dignity,am sure you would feel bad if someone calls you a gorrila,not to talk of a uselezs photo app,if it was wahala as u called it,google engineers wudnt hav apologised

my frnd gerout! wat did he say dat is wrong nw. simple: black na their wahala. don't u know wat hr mean? na do una go jux dey read meaning into somebori massage

Whatever, I'm not a gorilla. I don't think it's on purpose Sha.

Why should I care if someone calls me a gorilla, when I know I am not. As far as I am concerned only someone who is disabled, deaf, dumb, blind, et al should be upset if he or she is in anyway insulted, because they had their way they would be able. If someone insults me because of my skin tone, as far I as I am concerned he or she is just being silly, and I won't feel bad. The only reason to feel bad is IF I WISHED I WAS WHITE, which I don't. If the tin pain you too much insult the guy back, pure and simple

They were labelled gorillas not even by fellow human but by a software not mere words.....i think its a very big deal.

If you are not a gorilla then act like a human.

Do you observe queues? Are you orderly? Do you clean up after yourself instead of littering the streets? Are you your brother's keeper? Do you respect other people's beliefs? The list goes on............If you are a human, you are a human, if you are a gorilla, google is right.

I am just sorry for you!

For me I would not ask God why, because he has a purpose for making me what I am

What exactly are you saying? So whites behave better? Black or white, we are all humans. If black people are given equal opportunities the same with the whites, we will excel. Nigerians are doing well all over the world. Even Google has black engineers.
Now, if it were whites who this app labeled gorillas in sure there wouldn't be any of this kind of thing. But some blacks with low self esteem are bothered when a white man speaks, farts and makes a buggy app. Stop self loathing and love who you are. I'm sure you do the things that you listed in your post and many other blacks also do so therefore you and blacks are not gorillas and shouldn't be bothered about a buggy application. Cheers

I've got a piece of information for the world to hear, especially all those RACIST WHITES AFRICA SHALL RISE TO RULE THE WORLD, ONE DAY... JUST ONE DAY it shall happen and it shall continue forever.

I think the App is right.They look like Gorillas.

[quote author=Amaechi5 post=35387984]Google came under fire this week after its new Photos app categorized photos in one of the most racist ways possible. On June 28th, computer programmer Jacky Alciné found that the feature kept tagging pictures of him and his girlfriend as "gorillas." He tweeted at Google asking what kind of sample images the company had used that would allow such a terrible mistake to happen.

Google came under fire this week after its new Photos app categorized photos in one of the most racist ways possible. On June 28th, computer programmer Jacky Alciné found that the feature kept tagging pictures of him and his girlfriend as "gorillas." He tweeted at Google asking what kind of sample images the company had used that would allow such a terrible mistake to happen.

Google’s chief social architect Yonatan Zunger responded quickly, apologizing for the feature.
As part of the new Photos app, users’ photos can be tagged and arranged automatically based on objects in the photos. For instance, pictures of skyscrapers are all arranged in an album appropriately labeled "skyscrapers." The tag feature learns as it receives more data, refining its method for recognizing and categorizing objects. The feature is flawed, but categorization isn’t the only step in photography that companies have had trouble with.

For years, Kodak used a coating on its film that favored Caucasian skin tones, making it more difficult to shoot darker skin. Nikon and other consumer camera companies have also had a history of showing bias to white faces with their facial recognition software. Zunger says that Google has had similar issues with facial recognition due to inadequate analysis of skin tones and lighting. "We used to have a problem with people (of all races) being tagged as dogs," Zunger says.

Google attempted to fix the algorithm, but ultimately removed the gorilla label altogether. Zunger noted that the company is working on longer-term fixes that revolve around which labels could be problematic and better recognition of dark-skinned faces.


Africans should fight back with innovative technology: be it software, applications or social gadgets. The moment we put ourselves under their banner by relegating our status. #we are not second to any skin colour, but equals#

One day i am going to kill many white people i am going to chop their heads off and bathe in the blood

leuelliot:
Racist people now Racist Software..

Check out google's status. U wil notice dat fewer blacks work for dem.

Done of you people think Google intentionally coded it to tag black people as gorillas? Wow. It's obviously an issue with the algorithm they used to code gorillas, probably based in the skin tone causing issues. Seriously, I don't think a corporation like Google would take such a stab just to be intentionally racist.

What more can I say.. They want to keep damaging blacks but blacks too don't even know what they are and they don't want to know. Any black man still sleeping and believing a sky daddy is there to help u shame to u big time. Blacks are Gods

Check my threads black people. U really need to wake up cos these whites know what we are but using religion to blindfold us all.
I weep for my race

tot it actually changed their faces... #charge the engr

gidjah:

I care more about what God my Creator says about me

No probs. This is not the first time you are doing it. We are already used to it.

When we say our ladies should stop pouting before taking pix, they won't hear. Now her lips are making the software mistake she and her boyfriend for Apes.
