ImageNet Roulette is a web application built as part of the Training Humans art exhibit, which uses a neural network machine learning system to categorize images of people.

On September 15th, 2019, Twitter user @DarthLux tweeted a photograph of herself scanned by ImageNet Roulette identifying her as "stunner, knockout, beauty, ravisher, sweetheart, peach, lulu, looker, mantrap, dish" along with the message "is imagenet roulette tryna fuck" (shown below). Within 48 hours, the tweet gained over 1,400 likes.

The following day, Twitter user Kate Crawford tweeted about the app, stating "It reveals deep problems with classifying humans – be it race, gender, emotions or characteristics" (shown below).

On September 17th, Twitter user Max Read[1] tweeted The Situation Room photo tagged by the ImageNet Roulette app (shown below).

That day, Business Insider[3] published an article titled "The selfie tool going viral for its weirdly specific captions is really designed to show how bigoted AI can be."
