I agree, some things are just astonishingly bad given the immense effort and resources that are being put into machine learning.

Microsoft OneDrive tags my photos. It's mostly useless. For instance, I have some pictures of squirrels on the tree outside my window. Squirrels can really do the most amazing things on trees, but they are small compared to the tree.

Microsoft with all its AI muscle will invariably tag those images as something like #Outdoor #Grass #Plant #Tree.

It's the same problem with all of those benchmark beating AIs. They have no clue what's special about the picture and what just happens to be in them as well.
