Heat emissions.
From a picture.
Hold on there’s a ringing in my ears… Yeah yeah that’s my bullshit alarm going off.
The heat emission is the smoke they’re trying to blow up my ass.
Well, Big Shaq told us all that Man’s not hot.
So because she didn’t check herself, you might say she wrecked herself.
☜(ﾟヮﾟ☜)
This is hilarious, but also: how could anyone develop such a tool and not at least test it out on their own images? Someone with a public persona no less! Boggles my mind.
I mean, I bet they did, but you can’t test it with all the photos ever taken of you. Someone probably tried dozens of photos to get this result. Which, to be clear, I admire.
It looks like it’s the photo from her tweet
I would assume it was taken just for this tweet so all the testing would have been completed by that time.
Well - in this case it’s the photo she posted herself, to announce the app.
Wow
Hubris
They did, they know it doesn’t work, but they are already too far down in the money hole. Gotta grift and bullshit and spread bigotry until they make back the money.
Edit: Some words
The false result is from some unrelated gender detection tool that has nothing to do with the app. Nothing here indicates the actual app makes the same error.
The post is basically saying “this thing doesn’t work because I tried something else and it didn’t work”.
Of course regardless it doesn’t work also because it just doesn’t work.
OK im starting to have doubts that this is legit. Looks like OP (or OOP, idk) just found a classifier which misclassified that image. Nothing I’m seeing indicates that it’s the classifier used for her stupid app.
I fed it a pre-HRT pic and got “Woman, 56% confident”. Lol. I guess it’s kind of affirming to think a machine could see the real me back then?
I did the same pic that was used above and it said “Woman, 95% confident”
Did you use the larger cropped picture? And else I was thinking what if the AI was actually saying I’m 97% sure that it’s a man facing away from the camera.
that’s a solid disclaimer.
Personally I think a lot of TERFs became that way because they get misgendered a lot (by other humans mostly) especially when they dress butch. (She’s not dressing butch here, and ftr I would have guessed female.)
They have decided it’s transwomen who are at fault because their existence opens people’s minds to the idea that a person’s chromosomes might not match their clothing. People are just trying to address them as they’re presenting.
The real problem is that there’s still societal stigma attached to being misgendered. And still more societal stigma attached to being trans. Which they’re internalizing, and then making worse, instead of working to recast it as a simple error in judgement by the person using the wrong pronoun.
The ones who are really at fault are those who for generations have purposely misgendered other people as a slur meant to wound. Who’ve cast femininity as weak and masculinity as ugly. Especially now when they should know better. They make it worse for those of us who might make an honest mistake or even just want a polite way to ask. If every first conversation started with telling each other one’s pronouns, and every reference to an unintroduced person used they/them, you’d be able to ask without seeming to cast doubt on who they are.
And the other problem is the imbalances of power and privilege attached to gender in general of course. It would hit a lot different if a person’s gender wasn’t treated like a big part of who they are and where they stand in humanity.
Tldr: TERFs aren’t just mad about being misgendered as men, (wrong but at least higher status) they’re mostly mad about being misgendered as trans (wrong and lower status).
Stick, 🚲, “Trans did this!”
Tldr: TERFs aren’t just mad about being misgendered as men, (wrong but at least higher status) they’re mostly mad about being misgendered as trans (wrong and lower status).
Eh, TERFs in particular really lean on three things: “men bad/dangerous/evil/predators”, “women good, but need protected from predation” and “you can’t change which one you are, if you think you can it’s either mental illness or a ploy.”
It’s why they focus so heavily on trans women (and generally ignore trans men), especially trans women in spaces that are traditionally women-only. It’s why their language around the topic is so heavily drenched in the notion that trans women are “men in dresses” who are dressing up like that to get access to women’s spaces - the whole presumption is that trans women are sexual predators in costume to get access to prey in more vulnerable situations.
Interestingly, my first conversation with a teenager (I wasn’t related to) in about 15 years began with asking about pronouns. It’s very painless and easy to normalize as long as you don’t have a reactionary person nearby.
Also, the kids are alright.
well if it is 99.85% accurate, maybe she is self hating and hiding
Jenny: It’s 99.85% accurate!
App: 97.61% certain Jenny is a dude.
priceless
What’s the play here? Does she not know that people upload highly inaccurate or blatantly fake photos to dating sites all the time?
What problem does this solve?
The problem that right wing fuckwits always need somebody to hate and discriminate against.
Maybe her transphobia is just an attempt to pass better?
I kinda want to use it to see if I pass as a cis woman with short hair, but then again is my ego really prepared to be misgendered by some shitass app!?
Also, too, fuck TERFS 🖕
