> SAM can identify objects it has never seen before

I'd love to see what SAM does when you send it a photo of rolling fog though, e.g. https://www.google.com/search?q=rolling+fog+scotland&tbm=isc... - what happens then? (and how can it meaningfully segment-out fog?)

Not sure if this is what you mean, but I grabbed some of those images & dropped them in to see what it predicted: https://imgur.com/a/CXLmYXo

It groups the fog as a single object (except where it's separated by things like hills).

You can see what it does - it's available to test at https://segment-anything.com/.
