If the computer vision system returns human as one of its options, or if need be if it returns that the ‘pretty sure’ answer is genus Homo, then no other options should be presented to the user. Don’t fill it out with any other choices. Doing do would hopefully cut down on the number of ‘joke’ ID’s…

I have had the computer suggest Homo sapiens at the top of the list for something random, such as a moth, but then it has the correct identification below in the list. A couple of times, it seemed like the computer is just determined to get me to submit an observation of a human. This may be a good …

I have no evidence, but I don’t think the joke IDs are particularly fueled by the computer vision program - They were being added long before it existed. Another trouble is many observations of things are photos of people holding a specimen (eg a reptile), might it be more useful for the CV progra…

[image] Removing Homo sapiens from reportable taxa I have no idea how hard the coding to do this would be, but when the computer vision lists Homo sapiens as the first possibility, top of the rank order list, no other possibilities should be offered by the computer vision https://forum.inatura…

We discussed this as a team and decided that we didn’t want to take a stance in saying that we “know” for sure what the ID is. We did, however, remove the Homo genus suggestion from the list if Homo sapiens is the top result, as there was a pattern of students choosing it as a possible joke/insult.

Then this request as well as the original one linked to it should be closed to free up votes. Ideally the help page and/or curator guide should also be updated to specifically note that users who choose an obviously wrong ID for a human as a result of it being offered by the CV are not eligible for…
