I've been using a digital camera for many years and as a result have a lot of photographs.

How many is a lot?

$ ls -1R Pictures/ | wc -l
53190

Yeah, lots.

Despite having spent lots of time trying to create meaningful directory names it's still not easy to always find a photo I'm looking for.

What would actually be a USEFUL tool for AI would be something that I could run locally which could examine each of my photos and build some kind of free-text database of their contents which I can then grep.

But as far as I can tell nothing along those lines exists. Why have AI tools spent so much time trying to create faked photos and not producing something actually valuable?

@flan Oh, thank you. My web searching had not yet brought that one to my attention (it doesn't help that I don't really know what I''m looking for!)
