iNat AI bizarre misidentifications/suggestions

if this is correct, then it seems like the CV suggestions from the upload screen are based on a cropped image but the CV suggestions elsewhere are based on full images. is the difference intentional? is the other CV workflow going to be updated to also operate on a cropped image at some point?

yep this is correct, @carrieseltzer . the iOS fix was approved by Apple yesterday and will be rolling out to users in a phased release over the next week or so.

@pisum our goal is to standardize implementations across platforms. differences between platforms were unintentional and minimal, and the recent change to center crop instead of squash exposed some platform-specific preprocessing differences and we’re fixing them as we find them.

Don’t know if this is related, but I’ve recently seen a lot of CV suggestions, while posting observations or identifying on the website, that suggest the correct genus under “We’re pretty sure this is the genus:”, but then offer no species suggestion from that genus under “Here are our top suggestions:”. Even for a monotypic genus such as Prenanthella. Until recently the CV usually seemed to offer one or two species suggestions in the “pretty sure” genus at the top of the list.

See this thread, with numerous examples of the same problem (including a lot I found)

Everyone should have access to the latest iOS app version (3.3.3). For those who were having issues with the iOS app previously, how is it working now?
