The lines have become more blurred by the day in regards to AI in photography. A number of photographers of late have done videos, talking about AI and photography. I for one have very mixed feelings about this technology and where it really leaves photographers.
On one hand, it could help sharpen an image that was blurred, but on the other hand, it could totally change the whole image to the point where you wouldn’t recognize it when you first photographed it!
We already have photographers that manipulate an image so much in the editing in post processing it doesn’t even look real or represent the scene it was originally taken. Over processing to the point where the original image is nowhere to be found.
I think those who use AI technology should expose that fact to the public, especially if it’s going to be sold as a photograph. I remember using Photoshop when I was younger to cut and paste parts of figures into my photographs, but then it was obvious, where today it’s completely hidden in a lot of cases.
I believe if you’re going to change an image with AI, it should be in no certain terms exposed to the public! I remember sometime ago, a major photographer was caught, manipulating his images with AI, and the backlash was swift! The sad part was that his photos were outstanding to begin with, so it didn’t make a lot of sense to fake the image!
Soon there won’t be any telltale signs that an image has been manipulated in AI, which leaves it up to the photographer to come forward. Jon L youtu.be/9seZjrY9Hl8
