Shopify Thinks My Product is Lingerie

Shopify Thinks My Product is Lingerie

Ya you read that right. Not sure I'm mad though? When I uploaded one of my first test products it was a very crude picture of my product from my phone. It was also an earlier prototype. When I clicked on the "Category" section it auto-populated it with "Lingerie Accessories" and boy was I confused! I know I didn't select that. Well the more I thought about it the more I realized "huh, that does kind of look like a weird kind of thong, doesn't it?" 

Here's what I can say....don't attempt to use this product as a thong. You will be disappointed. 🙃. That is all.

Also a reminder to everyone that Shopify is doing AI image recognition on the photos you upload to Shopify which I suppose comes to no surprise, however, I hope when I upload an image of my face it doesn't auto-categorize it "Diaper Rash Treatments."
