October 24, 2024, around the time that Enhanced Visual Search is believed to have debuted.

I love it when surprise features get silently added, then discovered a couple months later. Makes you wonder exactly how easy it would be for Apple to start scanning for tons of other stuff in addition to landmarks, now that they've built out the infrastructure for it.

It's really kind of them, too. Collecting data for all of your photos for free, holding a database of public places for free, scanning your photos against them for free, returning that day to you for free... They're so generous!
