HI Ian,
     I've been on iNaturalist for a couple of years now and it is a great w=
ebpage. There are lots of sites like iNaturalist online now and they are re=
ally helpful for having others help you identify a species.
     The thing I'm asking about is a program that would allow someone to up=
load a photo and/or maybe some data (size, colour, location and whatever ot=
her ID info you have) of a fly, a leaf or a mouse etc. and have a AI comput=
er program take that photo and/or data and give you its guess as to Genus/s=
pecies identification based on it's algorithms - much like facial recogniti=
on and retina scans work today. All the best.
                        Fritz McEvoy
