This is the classic refrain product owners counter back with any time people present reasonable criticism of their AI app.

User: "This (AI product) doesn't work!"

Product Owner: "Well, humans are also bad at that."

That's not the promise of these apps in general! The whole selling point of AI is that they're vastly better - if my eyeball estimate is "pretty inaccurate" and by your own admission the app is "pretty inaccurate" then why the hell would I use your app??

From the very top of the page you linked:

> SnapCalorie is the first app where you can take a picture of any meal and get an accurate calorie count and nutrition in seconds

(emphasis mine)
