Google photo approving AI is dumb!!

Someone please tag some Googlers and ask them to “whip” their photo approving AI developers, I’m sick of this, uploaded dozens of flawless restaurant menus which are not approved; just an example:

Even tried holding it in hand with a background of restaurant:

Now I’m not a Google developer to care why menu photos like those above get rejected and photos like the ones below get approved for a restaurant! Just get your stuff fixed please.

A mechanical pulley on a restaurant indexing? You’ve gotta be five fingers… kidding me!

I appreciate your frustration @Kia_Faraji but suggestions of violence towards the team are inappropriate.

Please read the Core Values of Connect and consider how your post does not fit with those values.

suggestion of violence? I doubt you are a robot who can’t figure out it’s a joke; suggestion of violence, LOL!

Violence is no joke @Kia_Faraji by making jokes about it you normalise it and make people think it is acceptable. You talked about whipping the developers, this is not cool at all. So I am sorry that you think this is a joking matter.

Hi @Kia_Faraji ,

We understand your frustration, but we would like to remind you to be mindful of your words and how they may affect others. This means being considerate. I invite you to have a look at The 5 core values of Connect.

If you see abuse on Google Maps, you can flag the profiles of users who post incorrect information.

@InaS

Respectfully I’m not here to show some frustration and seek gratitude, that’s no good to me nor the system, you people never accept that the system has issues and always try to cover it up, is taking responsibility any part of your own values at all? you really think I already don’t know about reporting photos? I’m addressing a bigger issue, and the rejected menu photos…

Hi @Kia_Faraji ,

Did you add these photos under the menu tab of the restaurant?

Also, can you provide us with the URL of the photos that are private, so we can further investigate?

@InaS

Of course, here’s the link, though I’m addressing the issue very generally and this is just an example:

I tried the photos below, and two of them were added using menu tab:

The photos were in higher quality and size (about 2.5 MB);

The irrelevant photos were reported by the owner two days ago;

I deleted the rejected photos from my profile but if you need I can upload them again.

Could you please try to upload them again and let us know what will happen @Kia_Faraji ? And if they are private again send us the URLs of the photos?

Thank you!

@Kia_Faraji

U are right on this, and say whatever you want.

Google has to fix there problems once and for all, no1 asked for this failed AI experiment.

And there is still a freedom of speech, this is very important… we are humans with each one another opinion…

If we all have to smell the same, eat the same, dooing the same work sport etc, fall in love with the same x, life wasnt like it was today.

Hi @InaS
Since photo uploading on iPhone’s Google Maps always had a problem, I had to get my hand on my Android Emulator on PC, just uploaded 1 Menu photo using Menu tab on, it wasn’t approved, but it’s on my profile now:

I have never seen an option to share the link to a photo except for 360s, how can I do that?

It doesn’t upload the actual 2.9 MB image here, turns it into a 1.3 MB with less quality.

Hi @Kia_Faraji ,

If you log in from a PC, you can go to the Your Contributions, then Photos. Once you have found the photo you want to share select the three dots, and click share, a pop up window will appear and you can copy the link.

Hi @Kia_Faraji ,

We will send this information to the relevant teams to further investigate. Keep in mind this might take sometime. Thank you!

@De_Rouck_Sidney

Yeah it’s getting frustrating, I don’t appreciate digital things getting complicated and asking consumers to learn rocket science to benefit from the product.

And the amount of censorship is too much in this platform.

Also there are people who try to subtly force you to acknowledge that what you mention is not even a problem! and try to normalize “workarounds”!! And some people here take criticisms personal and don’t seem to welcome honesty.
