I tried a few photos...the categorization of the photos wasn't as impressive as the examples they showcase...for example, in every photo, "outdoors" was the only tag I got, even for this photo which is inside a subway car (I was hoping it would receive the train/station tag, which is apparently one of the things it recognizes in the demo photos):
On the other hand, it picked out 6 of the 7 faces in the photo, correctly determined their gender, and (AFAIK) gave reasonable estimates to all of their ages.
intelligent services is where the future is. Being able to build these types of capabilities into any app anywhere will just empower developers to use the state of the art without having to implement from scratch. Pretty cool to see Microsoft getting onto this path that other companies have started down.
