Ai keywording

I’d love to see Adobe introduce AI-powered keywording in Lightroom. With several AI features already added, AI keyword generation feels like the next logical step.

I have a relatively small catalog of around 8,000 images, yet keywording is still by far the most time-consuming part of my workflow. I haven’t found another Lightroom task that takes as much time and effort.

An AI feature that could automatically suggest accurate keywords would make organising photo libraries much more efficient, allowing photographers to spend less time managing catalogs and more time editing, sharing, and enjoying their images.

Is AI keywording something Adobe is actively considering for a future release? I’m sure many Lightroom users would find it a valuable addition.

    AI based keywording is already available in Lightroom, but is cloud based rather than local. That being said, there have been multiple similar requests for Classic over recent years.

    Whether AI keywording  being considered for Classic is not something that Adobe are likely to share publicly.

    I expect your post will be merged with existing thread located in the Feature Request forum.

    Cloud based only feeds your AI dataset. PLEASE br honest and start telling people the truth about what you collect and how you use it.

    I have no idea what this means. Please explain.
