I use Seeing AI pretty often for its bar code reading and short text features, but I haven't used that one.

But you are basically addressing the same issue I just posted about. There is a difference between the description of a face, and the identification of
that face with a specific person.

Seeing AI has a channel where you can train it to recognize a picture you take 
of a person and assign a name to that picture after 3 successful photos have 
been taken.
That is very different from combing the internet looking for matches to a 
particular face.

Subject: seeing AI and facial recognition

If I understand correctly, and I'm not sure I do, the debate is over whether 
Seeing and other similar apps should do facial recognition. I get it that many 
people don't want to have their face recognized and I don't think blind 
people's right to have faces recognized trumps the public's rights not to have 
theirs recognized.
