Cats, dogs, and birbs (according to my phone)
,2021-02 update: Because the turds at Viacom have removed all of the cross-posts of Garfield comics from Garfield.com, I have changed the link to the Garfield comic in the birds section to point to GoComics. This is bullshit.
I’ve never really used iOS’s automatic thing-detection for photo categories before, but I was looking for a specific picture of a dog from my ~8 years worth of photos, so I gave it a shot.
The 231 photos my phone thinks are of cats include:
- A human eye
- A squirrel
- Three different dogs
- A highly stylized, deco-esque painting of a cat
- A cat-silhouette-shaped wooden door-topper
- The owl from Reigns: Her Majesty
- Amaterasu from Ōkami
- Plenty of actual cats
The 214 photos my phone thinks are of dogs include:
- Four different cats, and these make up ~7% of the results
- One of the dogs from Overland
- A grebe
- Myself
- Plenty of actual dogs
The 76 photos my phone thinks are of birds include:
- Moths
- A cat
- A terrible drawing of a goose that I made
- A terrible drawing of an owl that I made
- A terrible drawing of a pig that I made
- A terrible drawing of a t-rex that I made
- A terrible drawing of Krampus that I made
- A terrible drawing of… a fox, maybe? that I made
- A terrible drawing of a talking harp that I made
- A terrible drawing of that time that my friend’s beagle tried to chase a great blue heron and the heron noped out with like two flaps of its wings (that I made)
- A digital illustration of a pigeon singing “No Scrubs” that I made
- A statue of two hedgehogs that I obtained after its original owner retired
- Two different cats
