Hi, this is the 3rd time I'm trying to post this on the forum, apple moderators ignoring it.

I'm a deep learning expert with a specialization of image processing.

I want to know why I have hundreds of AI models on my Mac that are indexing everything on my computer while it is idle, using programs like neuralhash that I can't find any information about.

I can understand if they are being used to enhance the user experience on Spotlight, Siri, Photos, and other applications, but I couldn't find the necessary information on the web.

Usually, (spyware) software like this uses them to classify files in an X/Y coordinate system. This feels like a more advanced version of stuxnet.

find / -type f -name "*.weights" > ai_models.txt
find / -type f -name "*labels*.txt" > ai_model_labels.txt

Some of the classes from the files;
