Hey folks, I work on the Watson team at IBM, and wanted to clarify a couple of things about this demo. The default classifier set is good for getting started and getting an idea of how the service works, but it's only been trained on a relatively small assortment of images, hence the sometimes bad results for arbitrary images off the internet.
However, the real power of the service is the ability to train it for your specific domain - after setting up one or more custom classifiers, you can get far more accurate results on the tags that matter for your use case. You can see a few examples of this and even try it out yourself on the "Train" tab.
