It’s time for file browsers to become useful. When you search for “dog”, it should show you content with dogs in it, not just files with “dog” in the name!

Hard disagree. I would love it if ~/Pictures were classified and indexable by whatever was found in the photos. Just as long as the classification process didn't send all my shit to the cloud for processing.

Local inference isn't that expensive. If confined to a single folder it would be like playing a game for a handful of hours.
