auto-tagging
Machine-assigned metadata labels
Auto-tagging is the automatic assignment of labels or keywords to content—photos, documents, emails, social media posts—typically by software using algorithms or machine learning.
The system analyzes content and applies relevant tags without human input: The photo app's auto-tagging recognized faces and locations.
Auto-tagging speeds organization but can misidentify content or raise privacy concerns when applied to people.
