Hi!

I've got thousands of abstract scanned images that aren't even organized, and now that we have AI I was wondering if it's just as well I waited because perhaps there are some programs that would be especially useful for my purposes.
I've heard I could tag items with various metadata criteria I'd add in Bridge, but I'm wondering about some software that utilizes AI, or is somehow smart enough to go beyond "picnic" or "grass" since these aren't photos. I also heard Lightroom is great for organizing. I'd want to search using terms like "red and green""bubbly""squiggles"... I don't know, even that feels more specific than a lot of my imagery, but I imagine some software would "understand" more of my meaning than others. Does anyone have any recommendations?

So far I've heard of this software that might suit my purposes (?): Excire, Dropbox, Lightroom..
I Definitely wouldn't want my images used for AI-development and would want the imagery to remain private.

I'd prefer something I don't have to pay for each month because I don't always use Adobe, but maybe that's too much to ask.. something not too expensive, though, if I'd have to pay. This preference isn't absolutely necessary though, because I could always search using various terms and then find all those files in Bridge or something, and add the given term to those images' metadata (if that wouldn't be too complicated).

let me know if you have tips! Thank you *so much!*

Bridge is not limited to any terms. Just use your own. AI can be subject to gross errors, especially associating images with concepts.

I was trying to save time and didn't mind some trial and error, but thank you for your feedback, Bridge might be best in the end since it doesn't require a subscription and is private.
