troubling and problematic and involving it involved me taking screenshots of the photos app and then ocring text out of them because photos does not provide a convenient way to select a bunch of photos and then just copy their file names uh which would be very helpful so many many people sent me uh solutions as i said on the show like oh i think maybe it was casey's gesture so i just use apple script i'm like yeah that would totally work but i hate apple script so much which is true i do

Um, but one of the things that a couple of people did is they said, Hey, I hate Apple script too, but I asked chat GPT to write me an Apple script. And I said, you know what? That's a good idea. I do hate Apple scripts, but I use chat GPT all the time for programming stuff. So let's give it a shot. So I went and opened up my own chat GPT window and asked it to write an Apple script for me.

And it did. And you know, the script didn't work, but you know, it's chat GPT. Sometimes it needs a little bit of help. Like it just got like one or two small things wrong and I fixed them and it was fine. I'm like, Hey, now I have an Apple script. Um,

And of course, once I've got that Apple script to and by the way, what I wanted the Apple script to do was get the file names of the current selection. Lots of other people saying, oh, we'll get file names of all your favorites. That's, you know, 50,000 photos. Don't do that. Or we'll get the file names of all the favorites within a date range. Then you have to pick a date range.

It's like, no, just let me just select the photos. You know, whenever I'm doing my workflow and photos. This during this step, it's very easy for me to simply select the favorites that I've just processed. And, you know, maybe worst case is like 200 photos or something. So I can just, you know, click and then shift click. I've made a selection.
