AI photo finder
It would be great if there was a privacy friendly (read: on device) replacement for the facial recognition-based photo organization in non-privacy respecting apps.
One thing I found useful in Google Photos for instance that I've missed is the ability to see a selection of faces of people that I know and then to find pictures I've taken of them. Currently if I know the photo I'm looking for is one of my father ... I'm often out of luck trying to find it in a sea of photos.
Facial recognition technology does bother me for a number of reasons ... but the can of worms is already opened. It would be great to see this more benevolent and handy use case paired with a privacy respecting implementation.

I would like to see an option to toggle (for privacy/security it should be off by default) that recognizes recurring people in images, and allows you to add their name to their face so that they are automatically recognized in the future. Perhaps this could use some AI model, or machine learning technique. It would be interesting to see this implemented in a secure way, say the AI model could be self hosted, or hosted on a proton server with zero-access encryption.
