Amazon Rekognition allows data scientists to access high-quality image recognition algorithms using API calls. One of the biggest obstacles in using deep learning is generating large datasets and running expensive GPU-based clusters to train the models. AWS Rekognition makes it easier for users to access these features without the prerequisite expertise required to train such models. The application developers can concentrate on building functionality without having to spend a lot of time on deep learning tasks. In this chapter, we studied various tools that are available in Amazon Rekognition and also learned how to make API calls and read the response JSON. Moreover, we also studied various applications where these tools can be useful.
In the next chapter, we will demonstrate how you can build automated chatbots using a service called Amazon Lex.
