Came to say Apple also did a great job on tagging my bois who are both grey-ish cats, even in pictures they faced backward, no idea how they did that

What I found impressive was that Apple Photos, given pictures of my cousins when they were 50 or more years old, was able to identify pictures of them as kids. On the other hand, it could never consistently distinguish between my two older brothers (although to be fair, they were identical twins). It also insists that a beagle I once owned was a cat. I mean, sure, he sometimes slept on his back with his paws in the air like a cat, but he was all dog.

On the other hand, it has no understanding of time. I have thousands of photos of me from the 1970s up through today, and Apple Photos is remarkably good at identifying me in all of them. And yet when my daughter was born it started identifying her, as a baby, as me. You'd think you could build a model to grasp the idea that a photo of a baby taken in 2015 is probably not of me.
