Abstract

The paper is concerned with the cases where machine-based image recognition fails to succeed and becomes inferior to human visual cognition. We consider the computational experiments on the set of specific images and speculate on the nature of these images that is perceivable only by natural intelligence. We deduce that image recognition and computer vision both based on machine learning or even more sophisticated AI models are unable to represent features of human vision due to the lack of tight coupling with the respective physiology.
