So look. I don’t actually like AI-generated imagery, I don’t like AI-augmented reality and I don’t like the idea that just about anyone can now fabricate just about any kind of imagery with a few text prompts.
Why don’t I like it? I’m not sure. Is it because I resent all my hard-earned manual editing skills being matched by a machine? No, I don’t think it’s that. Is it because I think the world is going to be flooded (or IS being flooded) by a deluge of crass, fabricated fantasies? Yes, I think that might have a lot to do with it. Is it because it’s now too easy for unscrupulous players to lie about what they’ve seen and done and captured. Yes, that is definitely a worry.
