I wanted to explore just how good Microsoft’s AI services really are, so I set up Azure Cognitive Services to detect celebrities from Twitter photos and gauge their emotions. Here’s what happened when I pointed Face and Computer Vision APIs at #breakingnews tweets — and how I shaved 12 months off Bill Gates’ age.
