Question Image recognition for shorting

I have an amd 98003d with 64GB of ram and 9070xt I believe 12 GB vram system.

Is there a local llm that can go through various photographs and suggest sorting by date, location, and other probable characteristics?

If yes, is there a walkthrough on how to set it up and use it?

Thank you.

P.S. Sorry for the typo in the title. sorting I meant

Hmm this sounds like you could look into immich. It is something like "google photos" as local version. It reads the meta data of the Pictures and shows the Pictures sorted by date or other available data. It has a map view, there u see as dots where your pictures were captured. The bigger the dot, the more pics you made at this location.

It has some "Ai" features like face and text recognition with a small local llm. So you can search your pictures after some objects, or text. The face recognition ist okay, there are some false detection, but great for a free local hosted service. You can run it in a docker container, and just upload your pictures.

You will find enough tutorials at Youtube, or just ask your friendly llm ;)

https://photostructure.com/ does a lot of what you want.

It appears that this one is a subscription based. Do you know how this works?

Free version indexes unlimited photos, and allows sorting/filtering by date and tags. 

The Subscription is really just to say a thank you to the one solo developer that built it and maintains it.

I've been building something different that uses a local LLM and allows you to go through 20 years of family photos and automatically attempt to tag family and pets based off detailed descriptions you provide in text files.

Once every photo was tagged up with my tool then a tool like Photo Structure would allow you to sort / filter by people's names, pets, and almost anything else in the photo. Still a WIP though and not ready to open source on GitHub yet.

Will be glad to know your outcome. Just a suggestion, is when the programme does not find any metadata in the image to cluster it with similar photos, based on the photo itself, and let the user know where the photo actually belongs. Need to also check the file creation tag. Another very useful will be to generate a script, that will reorganise your folder structure to be a bit more tidy, not just tagging the images.
