The AI built me a tagger for 20,000 photos I saved over 20 years

A man had the AI help him write an image organizer and tagger in an afternoon. He is now running it on 20,000 meme photos he saved over the last 20 years. Each photo gets described and tagged for use in LightCraft, the photo app he is building.

How it works

  1. He and the AI write an image organizer and tagger in an afternoon
  2. He runs it on his 20,000 saved photos
  3. Each photo is described and tagged
  4. The tags feed into LightCraft, his photo app

Why it’s worth knowing

One afternoon of building turned into a tagger that is working through 20 years of saved photos.
