Thanks for sharing about immich. I have a task that has been on my to-do list for several years now.

Amongst all the WhatsApp media on my phone I would like to get a list of all the videos and photos with my family in it and then delete the rest.

Is something like this possible with immich?

For anyone in the same boat as my self, I later found out that this is actually very easy to achieve (thanks to ChatGPT). Theoretically, this is how it is done

1. Encode faces, there is a library called face_recognition, that can grab faces from pictures and encode them 2. Group the faces data using `pairwise_distances(encodings, metric='euclidean')`, you only need sklearn library for this
