Well, they are now. Give it a year and we'll see.
- Filligree 4y agoI find it quite amazing how much commentary gets based on "Yes, this happened in two years. Now let's assume nothing changes hereafter."
- shagie 4y agoPossibly... but I'm skeptical. For the type of photography that I do, these are things that come from an understanding of the world and its implications. You aren't going to see certain types of clouds in certain landscapes - they just don't form there. For example, having a cloud that indicates fast moving wind in a mountain environment in a plains landscape with a glassy smooth pond. It's not that you can't paint that picture... but you'll never be able to capture that scene in camera. If someone was presenting that as a photograph, it would feel wrong to me because of an understanding of the meteorological criteria for the scene. I believe that they will generate images that are impressive. I watch https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbfYPyITQ-7l4upoX8nvctg https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbfYPyITQ-7l4upoX8nvctg and have been impressed with the pace of technology. Yet, I am doubtful that I'll have a generated image at 11x17 that holds up to the same scrutiny that I apply to my own photographs. I am absolutely certain that it will be able to generate images that are completely appropriate for images that you don't look at for more than a minute at a time or are used as complimentary material for other content. All that said, I am not concerned that I will get more or less sales of my photographs with AI generated art competing. The people who are going to pay for a photograph are going to pay for a photograph. Those who aren't - weren't going to in the first place.
