OMG is that why I always have to identify bicycles and crosswalks? That makes sense.

    And started off with letter identification to help with reading scanned books. For example, place 3 known 'R's tell users to select all R's. If majority of people select 4 R's then that unknown 4th R becomes a known letter

    I knew that function. And improving OCR felt like a worthwhile endeavor to crowdsource. There are a lot of old books that we need to digitize before we lose them forever.

    The pivot to recognizing things for self-driving cars makes a lot of sense, but I really don't like the idea that I'm increasing shareholder value for Tesla.
