A new app from Microsoft that pays you for photos you take with your phone
The following may be good news for photographers: Microsoft's new Trove can help you earn revenue from the photos you take. Trove is a fairly new project from Microsoft Garage that is designed to help developers build artificial intelligence (AI) models.
Trove is a new beta app from Microsoft Garage. It provides photographers with an opportunity to contribute to AI projects by submitting their photos and helping to train their AI models. Additionally, you also have the opportunity to get paid for your photo submissions.
Almost all tech companies these days rely on AI-based solutions. For these solutions to succeed, companies these days need to create better AI models that can be trained.
All too often, AI developers tend to aggregate large groups of images by requiring business workers to send the images. But sometimes, things do not go as expected, for a number of reasons.
Trove offers a solution to the aforementioned problem. In short, it is an app where users can contribute images to AI projects that developers can use to train their machine learning models.
Trove assures on its website that users will be able to control how their photos are used, maintain their rights, choose which licenses are published and know which projects are used at all times.
The Trove app is in preview at the moment, and is currently available in the US for both iOS and Android, but there are templates on their website for those who want to participate at this link
