Google photos is one of the worst among the lot. It is Apple of photo apps. Very little user control. No way to manually tag stuff or name stuff. The only reason I use it is for the free storage. The design philosophy treats users as dumbfuks. I'm looking to move everything out.

Chill everyone. Ammon didn't mean to betray anyone's trust. He just executed public profiles feature very poorly and compared them to profiles on anonymous platforms which was naive. Before a lot of people see this and delete their profile if I were him I'd do this>

+Continue keeping it an opt-out feature. But give a long lead time. A month or two. Regular emails warning that profile will go public and a personalized screenshot of what exactly would be included. +If users want to approve the public profile, they will stop receiving these emails. They should also be able to choose who to show in their profiles. +If users forget to approve or deny, make an extremely minimalist profile public with only initials of the name listed.

The Fellowship of the Ring. JRR Tolkein

"Frodo: I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened. Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

Resonates with me in real life a lot.

Thanks for the constructive response to someone who cannot look beyond facebook.com.

I think this OP's expletive is more appropriate to some applications of FB's AI research and tools in their products.

If they weren't investing heavily in AI research & tools, they probably would've leveraged Google's TF, Microsoft's (since they like them) CNTK, etc.

So, in net, they have a positive impact with PyTorch which is the subject matter. Not facebook.com.

Since tensorflow has released eager execution a while ago, did you ever consider switching back to TF for your course (or have a version of it)?
