Truly the power of AI is amazing to behold: it has discovered that HOTEL ROOMS frequently contain CHAIRS and DESKS!

This “filter the original site didn’t think of” is a great use of AI.

Our AI (yolo5) can only detect an ergonomic chair. Distinguishing a desk from a kitchen table with AI is probably impossible today.

We can't detect a monitor yet either, because it looks the same as a TV.

AI works great for us only in marketing

I think a desk is standard in most hotel rooms

Yes, that's why we trained our model only on ergonomic chairs

How do you train the model to differentiate "actual ergonomic furniture" from "we bought it at a high-fashion place so it's $1500, Scandinavian, and looks futuristic, but is somehow less comfortable than a $69 task chair?"

We trained the AI model mainly on Herman Miller and Ergohuman chairs. Unfortunately for AI, a cheap chair on wheels is 95% ergonomic.

Nice idea. Needs a map view or at least a way to search near specific areas of a city.

The map will be ready in a few weeks, now we are manually checking what AI has found and removing all the kitchen tables and chairs.
