There's some cool and scary stuff going on..

"Highlight. Vic shows the 696 photos from his last vacation, says he knows there are great pictures in there, but “I don’t have time to pick them out because my vacation is over.”
So now Google Plus will pick the best ones for you. How? Glad you asked. It can do things like make sure to just find ones that are in focus, or have bad exposure. But there’s other cool stuff too. It will look for landmarks, like the Eiffel tower, if there are people in the photo, if those people in your picture are smiling (wow), if the smiling people in your photo are your family.
This is one of those Google features that’s incredibly cool but also a little unnerving. "
