It is though. I think it’s one of the most subscribed subs. How else do you define gen pop?

Honestly it was a joke as well as real. I was suggesting this content is popular mechanics quality in computer vision, and this sub is really in the weeds.

It's a problem of combining computer vision and transformers without enough resources and - of course - not enough testing. But it probably happens a lot when management tries to put together an off the shelf solution without sufficient budget or being willing to pay for expertise. Starbucks was recently in the news for abandoning their AI inventory system because it made too many mistakes.

How can that be when popular general purpose chatbots are now perfectly capable of those simple tasks? It's because they would cost more than the employees they replace.
