5. Media will appear in the dashboard pre-selected for [batch tagging](/pinpoint-guide/user-guides/desktop-laptop/tagging.md#bulk-tagging) and edits if required.
   * If AI facial recognition was enabled, relevant tags are automatically generated for media upon upload via [AI tagging](/pinpoint-guide/user-guides/desktop-laptop/tagging.md#ai-tags).
   * If media were uploaded via folder upload, tags will be inferred and generated from the folder's structure. For example, a file with the path `Project A/Camera B/2024/image.png` will have the tags "Project A", "Camera B" and "2024".
