"Semantic Index" sure is a better name than "Recall". Question is whether I can exfiltrate all my personal data in seconds?

[anonbanker]

I'm sure a simple Webkit vulnerability (there's none of those, ever, right?) will definitely not ensure that Semantic Index is featured in a future pwn2own competition.

I mean I can already search my photos for “dog” or “burger” or words in text on photos. Adding an LLM to chat about it is just a new interface is it not?

[algesten]

I think the important thing is that the semantic index tracks all you do through all your apps.

[qeternity]

They are likely implemented very differently. I’m not certain but I imagine the current photos app uses an image model to detect and label objects which you can search against. I expect Semantic Index (by virtue of the name) to be a vector store of embeddings.

It's all in the "private cloud". "Trust me bro", it's like totally private, only us and a handful of governments can read it.

[algesten]

Yeah. It's going to be great. Selected experts are saying so.
