It's not the art photography prints they have to replace. It's the millions of times a day a business reaches for an image to throw a brochure together or create a YouTube thumbnail or uses a matte painting for video compositing, or does a sky replacement. And especially in cases where the businesses want to have sole ownership of the image and not a stock license.
- dahart 4y agoThat’s one great reason to want AI generated imagery, and I even suspect will prove to be the primary business model for these kind of pixels, at least initially. But, speaking personally, I really hope our stock photos end up with better reflections than this. And I hope we don’t end up with a bunch of stock photos everywhere that are fake, it can be misleading in so many ways to use fake images, even for cheesy corporate brochures, and it’s disappointing and cheap for companies to want content without paying for it. Ultimately it does cheapen the original authors’ work and undermine the market for creative work if AI can pump out similar stuff that manages to skirt copyright while simultaneously copying.
