Yes, a warning that something's data is going to be deleted due to inactivity and a brief blurb on what the thing is in case you forgot because the inactive period is 2 years. How horrible.
"By default, your face groups are only visible to you."

...and us, of course.
- And deletion means they are not available to you, only us.... And we reserve the right to own the data you leave behind so we can sell it and have AI figure out how many times per day you scratch your head. Don't worry AI will love the boring data you leave behind.
Face Groups sounds okay to me. What's the issue here?
- AI face recognition groups.
  
  It's not going to stop using your face, it's just going to delete the groupings the AI came up with for your data.
This has nothing to do with AI.
- Using neural networks to classify faces in photographs isn't AI?
  
  No. A simple image classifier isn't AI.
AI is great when it's self hosted. https://immich.app/
- I use photoprism. Its great but it is not fully open source.
  
  It looks like it does the same thing. Immich just has that familiar feel from Google Photos.
