this is not new. it’s just another version of the photograph-a-hummingbird-feeder-get-a-hummingbird-suggestion situation i talked about.
any time you get suggestions accompanied by the “we’re not confident enough to make a suggestion” disclaimer, you shouldn’t put much faith in those suggestions.
tying this back to the original post, i think it’s also worth noting that you often shouldn’t put much faith in the suggestions that fall lower on the CV suggestions list either. for example, here’s a view of the suggestions for @brnhn’s crane fly photo, including things not expected nearby and also showing the underlying scores:
notice that the higher-than-species suggestion gets a score of about 84 (out of 100), but the Great Mullein suggestion’s score falls below 1 (out of 100). so the quality of the Great Mullein suggestion here is much lower than the quality of the Crane Fly suggestion.
it’s currently not obvious there is such a disparity in the quality of the suggestions because the scores are not displayed to the end user, but there are signs that this will be rectified in the future.
… and i guess this is probably something that @jeanphilippeb should note, if he’s not already incorporating it into his Unidentified project effort. if the top CV suggestion’s score falls below some threshold, you probably shouldn’t use that suggestion as the basis for including an observation into a project.
