But the system appears to be misfiring frequently, and often in offensive ways. A portrait taken by Corey Deshon of a black man named William has been auto- tagged with “blackandwhite” and “monochrome” – but also with the words “animal” and “ape”.

The system itself doesn’t appear to be applying race as a factor, since at least one other photo, of a white woman, was also given the “animal” and “ape” tags.

Lol at this article it says "black people" are being tagged then the only other example they can find is a white woman
