MyHeritage Face Recognition – FAIL.

I was just playing around with the new celebrity lookalike facial recognition tool from MyHeritage (sorry, no link love since your applet links back to you too. ps, I accidentally put a nofollow in it too.)

If you ask me, it needs a lot more work. Just see below. According to them, I look like Wayne Brady and J.K. Rowling. Funny, I don’t see the resemblance to either.

This is a classic example of FAIL – although I hardly doubt it will stop legions of people from posting it on their MySpace accounts.

Of course, it does look like it’s possible to have some fun with it as well:

I’m not sure about you, but I for one don’t consider Halle Berry or Angelina Jollie dogs.
