Flickr now is auto tagging my stuff.

[Blacktop]

I don't know how I feel about this yet. On one hand it's nice since I'm much too lazy to tag stuff, on the other hand I don't want it tagging it incorrectly.

Looks like you can opt out, but it would have been nice to have me make the decision to opt in instead.

Just looked through some more of my images and it seems to be doing a pretty good job. In this image it is tagging correctly. Now ,if Flickr could just come over the house to do some yardwork and wash my car, it would be great!

do you know when this started? I did not see any tags on my shots, last (05/04/2015).

Not sure. I usually log on to Flickr every day but usually don't scroll down the page where I can see the tags. I'm sure it's fairly recent because I uploaded stuff Sunday and didn't notice anything then.

Same here, haven't noticed any auto tags on my photos. I don't see any tags on your photo either. Are these tags private?

what color are the tags you are seeing? dark gray or light gray? photos can be tagged by friends.

Just checked on flickr, no tags on mine (apart from the 1's I've put on)

Have you started tagging photos in Lightroom? If so, those may be getting picked up when you export to Flickr.

They are Flickr tags. I'm at work so I can't post a screenshot.

No. These are the new Flickr auto tags. I'll post screen shots when I get home this morning.

I upload to flickr frequently, latest was this past Sunday. No auto-tags here.

Last image I uploaded - https://www.flickr.com/photos/michiganclassics/17139256137/

I just ran thorugh my flickr settings, did not see anyhing about turning on/off auto tagging?

 

[BackdoorArts]

I'm with Joe. I do get all of my Lightroom tags, but there's nothing else added and no options to be found regarding auto-tagging.

My last photo was autotagged, but the others havent been, it must be really new feature... one we will either get to love or hate
