The program is unacceptably slow compared to Exire Foto (lightning fast) and does a much better job in my opinion

[@rakneuro]

Thank you for the video. It wasn’t quick and it wasn’t automatic. It might be quicker than my current method, but I think I’ll wait for improvements in updates or for LR to add this feature before I consider using it.

[@raulgalets]

what is your current method? I am kind of new to LrC and definitely new to Keywording at LrC, so I am open to suggestions

[@splinterspell]

@@raulgalets Keyword of the files in your folder first eg "new" "york" "vacation", then select the greatest number of files with a common keyword and add that (eg "building"), then reduce by number, adding unique keywords, until you get to a point where you have keyworded all images with unique keywords. The result will be that all of your images have kewyords "new" "york" " vacation", most of them might have "new" "york" " vacation" "building", a lot might have "new" "york" " vacation" "building" "skyscraper" "blue" "sky", quite a few might have "new" "york" "vacation" "central" "park", some might have "new" "york" "vacation" "central" "park" "trees" you might have a few "new" "york" "vacation" "people" right down to the point where you might have a single image "new" "york" "vacation" "people" "man" "eating" "hamburger" in "red" "jacket" with a "dog". Just select the images in Lightroom that you want to add keywords to and type in your chosen keywords in the Keywording section of the right-hand panel. Hope this helps.

[@estetubo]

Great tip, saves lot of time!

[@yamaha4015]

Ok, I’m a customer, enjoy watching your informative videos. Now, as they say in de hood, will u please change the picture, enough with that lighthouse. Luv the dog.

[@dretwav]

In On1 can you recursiverly processes subfolders. It would be a huge pain to have to do this process for every day. I actually use ACR rather than LR and my file structure is even more complicated. I can find no way to process multiple folders in ON1

[@michaelmcphee2930]

My keywording would be just one word which would be Lighthouse and maybe location if there was going to be more than eleven images. All the same it was extremely interesting video with possibilities for implementation in various work flows. Maybe down the track if Adobe adopt it.

[@howardberliner9073]

If you use collections mainly is there a work around or do you need to do all of the work in folders? Thank you

[@TimDobbs]

Thanks for the info ... when I click import settings from disk it removes my lightroom edits though and I have to go to history to fix ... very annoying

[@stevethompson8154]

Can't wait to have Adobe add this feature to Lightroom Classic

[@boulx]

matter of months

[@danielmcgowan9534]

I've been "suggesting" this improvement to Adobe for years. I'm not waiting.

[@mgerspix]

Tried the trial and found the sheer number of bad keywords it comes up with will take longer to select, unselect, and add what does make sense, compared to just spending more time in LR catching up on my own keywords,. Adding or revising a batch of images seems easier in LR, too. Don't be surprised if Adobe adds AI keywords in the future, they recently brought it up in a customer survey.

[@gwine9087]

A cool process, but my initial thought is that the AI gets carried away with keywords. I would spend too much time getting rid of many of them. And if I didn't, I would get too many images returned on a search for e.g. "sky".

[@Jambo1999]

A lot of BASS in the vocal here! Stuff on my desk is rattling.

[@JBHaber]

Slower than heck. Not sure how applicable this is for years with of photos. And like others have suggested, it’s probably coming to LR soon enough.

[@WilliamBurdine]

What a cool tool... EXCEPT for the fact that it is overly repetitive in that it puts BOTH proper case and lower case words... of the same word... (ex. Sky, sky, Vivid, vivid) This is not required and it should be refined. I'd love to see this feature added into LRC and I am sure Adobe might in the future.

[@alanolander9983]

But it didn't know the building was a lighthouse.🙂

[@johndembo8038]

I think it thought it was a tree. Definitely room for improvement. Not time to buy yet.

[@scarcesense6449]

Seems like it would be much easier to just type "lighthouse" and click add. This tech and the interface really needs improvement.

[@splinterspell]

Exciting . . . however not accurate or quick enough compared to manually keywording at the moment. Imagine when this software gets up to speed though . . .

[@carstenortlieb5040]

When you cklick on Add All, you add the one active keyword set to all selected images. SUPER ANNOYING! The image shows a wolve, but the keyword is sheep. I quickly bought the software, because I thought 50 bucks is cheap. But I now regret, not to have used the trail first. That thing is complete crap from my point of view.

[@EricVaandering]

I had the same issue. You get every keyword from every image on every image. What a mess. If I wanted to go through image by image and push the keywords, I could just keyword them myself. You can get around this a bit by setting up something as a Catalog Folder so things are automatically added. But then it (with an update) wants to add every keyword at the top level. I have a very carefully curated keyword hierarchy, so again, this just makes a mess.

[@EricVaandering]

I fixed this by writing a simple python script using exiv2 which migrates all these keywords down to a sub-level. That should make it acceptable as a starting point, but I can tell I'm going to have to select each keyword and remove the ones that don't really apply. It picks up everything in the photo and then some fans positives too.

[@dsorx]

Thank for demonstrating. It looks terrible. The keywords were bad and it applied each one twice, with a capital letter and without.

[@veneamin]

some programs doesn't do case independed search, so it's a good to have both variants

[@janverschooten891]

I have been testing it for a few days and it is completely useless, it creates a mess of keywords... the idea is good but not ready for public release! OHHHHHhhh boy it is as slow as a turtle! What baffles me is that they already charge for it like it is a full release of a matured application... no thank you!!!

[@janverschooten891]

Artificcial Ignorence is a better word for it 😂

[@TheRidingDutchman99]

Not convinced. Slow, inaccurate. If I am not mistaken, it missed the keyword 'lighthouse'.

[@veneamin]

Looks like early beta, slow, non-intuitive and odd keywording

[@RSV9]

A lot of programs that do this automatically have these weird keywords. For example, I have a photo of the rover on Mars and the result of Excire is as follows : dark, colorful, nature, sand, silhouette, desert

[@veneamin]

@@RSV9 Not only odd. The "vivid" keyword in every image doesn't helps in searching. And it generate sidecar .on1 files instead of using existing xmp or database

[@davidmantripp5312]

Looks absolutely useless. A far better investment would be PhotoSupreme.

[@willbert7715]

thi has absolutely nothing to do with lightroom. omg. dont you hate yourself?
