Introducing RICK: Saving the Internet from Rickroll
We get it. Rickrolling happens.
But what if, using the latest state of the art machine learning, you could build ways to detect and prevent you and your loved ones from ever being Rickrolled again?
We're thrilled to introduce RICK: Real-time Intrusion Checker Kernel, a state of the art advancement and foundation model in internet safety. RICK is capable of detecting the presence of Rick Astley in images and video, so that applications can be built to shield you from Rick Astley content (or amplify said content, should you choose 🙃).
Conceived on April 1, 2022 at 9:41 AM ET and hacked together in about 30min during Roboflow's Friday team lunch, RICK has undergone thorough development to address a pressing need in online safety.
RICK is trained on 1200 images of Rick Astley and non-Rick Astley content.
Read more about how and why we built RICK here.
Building with RICK
As an example of RICK's utility, the Roboflow team has built Rickblocker, an open source application that automatically mutes your computer and places a black box on Rick Astley's face whenever he is present in a YouTube video you may accidentally click.
Try RICK Yourself
RICK is fully hosted and free to use as an API or in-browser model. You can even confirm if you are not-rick
by trying with your webcam.
Use This Trained Model
Try it in your browser, or deploy via our Hosted Inference API and other deployment methods.
Build Computer Vision Applications Faster with Supervision
Visualize and process your model results with our reusable computer vision tools.
