Dude, I have much to say on this topic. One important note is that this 'what is a photo' feeling is going to rip through society as it comes for each and every skill set.

AI will be great for marketing content, micro content, those quick snackable things. It succeeds at creating fiction but still fails at capturing reality (photography is still better).

I hope that we see a craftsman renaissance. If AI can make images no problem then what am I to do with my time?

My reaction is to go back in time to analog and the weird arcane parts of the craft. Or find new novel ways to work with the AI in more fluid, human ways to create images (something without laptop intermediary).

Anyways, it's a wild feeling but quite frankly this trend started when the iPhone put smart cameras in everyone's pockets.

How society will handle this when it becomes a better accountant, nurse, writer, policy maker will be an interesting story to watch play out. Methinks the kiddos of today are going to grow into quite a different future.

at first sight, I wouldn't question any of those images. given I have no idea how Adobe is accomplishing things here, but it seems the first (?) thing Photoshop is doing, is giving the image more "depth". my english is bad and I don't even know image manipulation lingo. what I mean: the bridge is artificially stretched, the guy on the bridge is smaller, more in the background towards the horizon. of course, Photoshop has to do this in order to provide more space to fill left, right, and on the top of the image. as a consequence of this stretch the mountings of the guardrail seem to be wrong. they would cover too much distance. in this example, this might give away that it's an artificial image.
