I have a large on-disk photos library (in the Apple Photos app.) I have a lot of semi-duplicate photos. The main deduplicator software I tried can detect near-duplicates well (eg visually similar photos taken a fraction of a second apart) but it doesn't choose the best one to keep: it will suggest to keep a version where people have their eyes closed, and delete one with eyes open, for example. Could AI make a better choice there?
A reliably good app that helps me delete duplicates and shrink the photo library size would be amazing. Could this do something along those lines?
Similarly, I want to delete low quality images: blurred, etc. I don't know of an app that does that.
- vintagedave 2y agoOne other note - I saw another comment that your AI model runs on CPU. Does it run well or better on the M1 or newer? That is, can you market it as an Apple Silicon-only app?
- correa_brian 2y agoIt runs on both intel and Apple chips. I do think it's a bit faster on the silicon macs.

- Auracle 2y agoI don’t know if it’s quite what you’re looking for but there are plenty of AI photo culling software choices for photographers.
- vintagedave 2y agoDo you have a recommendation? I'm using Photosweeper currently. Lots of articles online that look like semi-blogspam, and I'll go through each product in them... but if someone has a specific human-powered recommendation I'll happily listen :)
- Auracle 2y agoI think Aftershoot is the most popular, but I’d search “culling” in r/weddingphotography to get a good overview. I don’t know if any run locally though so pricing might not be great for someone doing loads of images…that said a typical wedding for me had at least 5k raws to go through so it might not be that bad.
