I know that in the future AI will scour my screenshot folder and group everything neatly, add tags even.

Hope is a wonderful drug

My pixel 9 does that

Also maybe we will be able to prompt our pc with a local open source model “pick all science related screenshots and group by the topic” - sure 1344 results, do you want to see them?, no list all the topics, - astronomy(34), quantum(23), ethnology(10)

I don't see whats stopping you from doing exactly that ten years ago. What you describe it just tag searching. Plenty of software exists to do that.

You're missing the point that actually requires tagging and organization to begin with.

The difference they are talking about is automatic parsing and natural language understanding of their screenshots and other data.

Newer Pixel phones can do this already, and I quite like it. Basically a local model on the device writes a text description for each screenshot, and you can sort/categorize them based on that. It will refuse to describe particularly spicy screenshots (either political or graphic), but perhaps that's a good thing.

You do need to sell your soul to the corpo overlords though and join the Google ecosystem, which I continue to have mixed feelings about.

I wonder if there is a way to do this on a degoogled graphene OS installed pixel phone.

BTW, I'm looking for a source of a cheap pixel 6 or newer phone for privacy purposes (to install graphene OS on), I'm a disabled activist on a fixed income so it's hard to afford stuff like that most of the time but at the same time it's becoming more and more important to take measures like that for privacy, if anyone is interested in a trade or otherwise has a good idea for how I can get one, please let me know.

I bought a pixel second hand and did this, it's easy to do even for a non techy person. You might say which country you're in, I could give some ideas but I'm in england so they might not work for you.
