Does the new photos app still try to recognise faces? Will the new photos app still try to guess who everyone is in all my photos? I'm really hoping this is one feature that was deprecated! 



FYI if anyone is wondering, I personally did not like this feature because it consumed at lot of CPU and kicked my fans up to 100% with no way to limit or control the process.
Yes, there is a Faces album which will show all recognised faces in your images.
