Nice. I store my photos on Dropbox and now duplicated locally on a home NAS. They don't have a photograph based product like Google memories, which I really like. I've been de googling and looking to reproduce it.

I've been noodling with running a preprocessing step to "tag" pictures and videos with a set of tags with richer spatial and temporal features with off the shelf models and then just let a local AI model pick one based one what might match today's theme.

Are you using any models to make your curation step easier/better UX wise? e.g." Compose all Christmas pictures with Grandma and the kids on vacation" and it would give you a collection to curate from my library

One of my priorities is end user privacy so I'm trying to minimize how much access my service would have to the users library of photos.

Rather than me scan all of the photos I'd prefer the user manually select them. Plus, you get the bonus feature of also getting to review your own photos again :) I find a lot of the time I never go back and look at photos I take. I'm trying to evoke feelings of printing photos and putting them in an album. Digital is no substitute for physical, but if I can get close I'll take it haha

I am considering some ease of use features like library scanning / tagging maybe on an opt-in basis perhaps.
