Hi, I want to ask:
What they based on to offer two photos to choose from in Question of a place, and ask which is the most helpful of a place?
They based on the most visited photo or the one with more likes? Or none of the previous options?
Thanks
Kind Regards.
Hi @SebaasC ,
Iām not completely sure I understand your question. I think Google is asking these questions to help decide which photos to feature (show on the frontpage) for each place. I believe they also use some AI to evaluate the quality of each picture so it is not only feed back from local guides that decide which pictures to feature.
There is another post about what featured pictures mean. You might want to read that as well:
All the best from Copenhagen
Dear @MortenCopenhagen thanks for your comments.
Maybe I was not clear.
Why they choose this two pictures to ask the Local Guides which of the two are more helpful?
In my screenshot example there are products pictures, but in other ocations it shown, selfies or pictures that are no related with the business.
I donāt think it is related with the quality, I donāt know.
In the other hand I read the post that you linked me and I have never had the mail of Featured Photo.
Thanks a lot.!
@SebaasC Maps shows us two photos to vote us which is better. I think they take decision based on the votes along with their AI as mentioned by @MortenCopenhagen .
Ahh, I think they are selected randomly from the pictures uploaded resently. The value for Google depends getting a lot of replys.
I often abstain from selecting one if they are both bad or not representative.
BTW. The most fun is when I get this choice and one of the pics is my very own! Guess which one I then select 
@SaifIS , thanks for the feedback!
@MortenCopenhagen I do exactly the same as you, I abstein cause both shown donāt represents the place or are very bad pictures.
I think we have there an opportunity of improvement.
Thanks for your replies!
Lol @MortenCopenhagen Iāve never seen my photos in that kind of question! 
You must be super lucky!
But yeah, I would guess that thereās some sort of reasoning behind the two choices. I canāt imagine it to be purely random. I would say that the AI has some ambiguity in the quality of the two options and needs some human guidance as to which is the better choice.
And like everyone else commenting here, I also abstain when both choices are pretty bad.
Interesting question though @SebaasC 
Hehe. @AdrianLunsong
Then I have been super lucky three times now 
I think they normally appear when someone is āchecking factsā of a place.
Heyy! @AdrianLunsong Hello!
Thank you.
Sometimes I find my pics too, as @MortenCopenhagen specially in the small business and I choose them, but if the other option is better, I discard mine and choose the other.
But I find many selfies or pics of another places that are not related too in this kind of questions. I donāt know if the IA is working properly or it is just like this.
As I said in a previous comment I think that we have there an improvement opportunity.
Thanks! Bye.
Hello @lettiphas , It could be too.
Thanks for your comment.
@SebaasC perhaps you should submit an Idea to Idea Exchange that they should add a button āBoth pics are unfitā or something of that nature. I would definitely vote for that, as I have also faced occasions where that was needed.
Just skipping without making a choice could be interpreted (by AI or Googlers) as āboth are equally good at representing the POIā
I have to add that sometimes, because of the small size of the photos, it makes them useless and makes a selection extremely difficult. It would be good if we could click or select any of the two photos and enlarge it to full screen to better view it and then make a more informed decision about which is best!
Yes @JanVanHaver maybe it is a very good idea to submit this issue in the board Idea Exchange. As I see many other Local Guides are facing the same doubt.
Thanks for your response!
@AdamGT it would be a good point too.
Thanks for your comment!
Hi @SebaasC ,
What you can do in cases like this is to click on More choices and then select one of the options which you think suits best.
Hi, @KlaudiyaG , thanks for your comment.
I click More options but these one arenāt so clear.
Example:
It depends( ?) Depends of what?
The question is no clear( the question is clear, but the images arenāt both suitable in some cases)
It donāt apply ( tell if this is the best option)
The place is closed permantly ( never is the case)
Thanks for your help.
Regards!
