  A co-worker wanted to show me a specific vacation photo and just wrote what was in it and the photo came up out of the hundreds he had like magic so that was kinda nifty.

  I find this type of image search incredibly useful – but mostly for when I take pictures of documents and it recognizes the text on them.

  As you're typing in the search term, you're also given a "Name contains <term>" option in the dropdown if you're strictly searching by filename

    Sure but why not give me file name matches first instead of random pictures, since I started the search from Finder itself? Why try to outsmart the user? I have no problem with searching pictures using keywords if it’s limited to the Photos app.

  Spotlight’s ordering is asinine but that doesn’t mean AI features can’t be very useful.

    Yeah spotlight is so bad now. It's weird because when it first came out (tiger?) it was really good and fast. Now it sucks and it's slow.

      It's still super fast for me, but now I have about 10x more internal storage in my machine than in the Tiger days (which is filled with random downloaded PDF files and other crap), so there are way more results, requiring a much more intelligent sorting algorithm than it ever did when it was new.
