I'm sorry, but then you are the minority. AI image categorization and face recognition is amazing for finding specific pictures quickly
This is one of the few things I can get behind with machine learning. Locally run, doesn't "phone home", just analyzes faces and categorizes them. That's it.
That's great when your photos have faces. Mine mostly don't. Also they don't come from my phone. So Google is also fairly useless.
It also works on simple objects, not as good as Google yet but good enough for me. I can search for keyboard or bicycle and find pictures that way.
That's good to know. I'm using digikam, but I'm always interested in options
That's fair.
I wasn't super thrilled about the idea myself, but with the ability to disable it I figured I'd give it a try.
Personally it's a really cool feature that adds to the experience.
