CarolineJensen Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 This is a huge can of worms...what do you all think? I make a good chunk of change making AI things that are not photography related, but I want to make my photography stay relevant in this new world of digital creation.How is Sony merging alongside these new developments? I'd love your thoughts and insights! My initial thoughts are these...AI cannot be personal. It cannot capture authentic and real moments, even if it tries to create simulations of such. A wedding, birth, or tender moments between people cannot be faked. Video of real moments cannot be faked.My biggest concern is for fine art photographers (like me) who make things that are easily created with AI. How do I make images that fill the need and cause the impulse buy of a person who likes floral beauty? or people who make composites? I can see AI filling in so many gaps for composite images that very little photography will remain. As Adobe integrates this tech into their products, like Photoshop, I can see the lines blurring to the point of not knowing where photography ends and imagination begins. Thoughts?

DonSmith Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Photographers already composite and the less scrupulous ones will put it out as a single click - so in a sense, it is already happening. I can tell you that Getty Images will not accept AI-generated imagery. Where it goes from here is anyone's guess. I'm more concerned that all photographers are being ripped-off financially as this software is pulling from images on the web - yours and mine included. I don't recall signing away the rights to my images in order for AI to generate new images. Maybe a class-action lawsuit??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarolineJensen Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 The inevitable is happening and we all have to adapt or get left behind, haha. Yes! I totally agree. I have figured out how to make and sell things that have nothing to do with photography or prints, but I want my photography to stay relevant too. It's a weird thing to navigate!

MattK Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Adobe’s seems a little more graphic design in nature. Which I actually like. Now for my marketing emails, graphics, etc… I have something other than trying to use Adobe Stock and adding my own text, layouts etc… Will definitely be interesting to see where it goes but initially I’m liking Adobe’s version for type effects that would just be timely for me to create in Photoshop.
