Hi there museum community,

One of my volunteers has been poking me for years about acquiring an AI
facial recognition software for our photograph collections. She admittedly
doesn't know much about said softwares but thinks that it could help us
assign names to unidentified people in our catalogue records. I imagine
that it would scan our database, or possibly other publicly browsable (web
based) collections to find matches, if they are out there.

Do any of you know of such a software?

Thanks very much,
Petra
