I don't get it. What was your search? I put in pacman and get nothing like you got.

I think it's a kind of search where you upload an image and it works out the search terms using some object recognition algorithm. He's creeped out that it went from the picture of an arcade cabinet to Pac-Man.

Ah, here's the description on Google Images:

Quote:


New! Now you can use an image to start your Google search.
Learn more, or try it now by dragging one of these images into the search box above.

The search was for a "aaaaaaa......(etc).bmp" and google started pulling up pacman results. Im pretty sure that's why he/she is freaked out

WTF? I leave you little scamps alone for one day and suddenly I'm a he/she?

But yep, I mangled a photo of a Pacman cab, renamed it aaaaaaaaaaa, dragged the bmp into the search box and Google was like, "Bitch, please... That's obviously a Pacman."

[EDIT] Holy crap, it can ID PCBs...

There's more than that behind the scenes....."search engine 'filter bubbles' design concept".

20 different MW forum folks will get 20 different tailor-made search results depending upon their respective tastes when searching about PacMan.


Mine will show up with nothing other than Nintendo Wild Gunman results. No PacMan or QBert....whatsoever.
