Take it up a couple notches, extract the image, run image analysis on common features you like. A nice simple ML bot and train it to your needs.

Then let it run in the wild. We did this for a friend, funny AF

I don't know man...I get that its a fun project for shits and giggles.

But mining pics from dating sites (albeit publicly available) and using them for feature extraction/image analysis without their owner's consent feels kinda wrong

That's and absolutely fair point.

To note this was done in the frontend using tensforflow, no data store etc.

But nonetheless good point, and something to reflect on, definitely not right thing to do at all
