Google Starts Scanning All Your Photos As New Update Goes Live (www.forbes.com)

Google confirms its latest update can scan all your photos to “use actual images of you and your loved ones” in AI image generation. That means Gemini seeing who you know and what you do. You likely have tens or hundreds of thousands of photos. They’re all exposed if you update.

Same, I set it up a few years ago and both me and my partner have been using it since then with no issues at all, it's completely replaced Google Photos for us.

We've also set up immich-frame and repurposed an old Google Nest hub to use as a digital photo frame.

Immich-frame has been on my todo list for a while. Need to get on that.
