Future of Photography?

An Interesting article from MIT. After scrolling through the pictures could this be the Future of Photography?
Will Cameras become a thing of the past?

Given there are still many paint and print artists not supplanted by photography I doubt that AI will do away with photography.

Some will like it as it will allow them to create images from their mind.
I'll stick with photography.

About 10 miles west. Along the river.
I took a few classes at F&M over 50 years ago.

I have a DALL-E account and it's fun to play with. However. your question regarding photography is similar to many writers who need to write. They pick some subject and write an article meant to bait a reader into reading it.
To answer your question, in a word...NO. Cameras will be with us with no fear of going away.
AI uses computers. Photography uses light. Two separate media.

It can't be the future of photography because it isn't photography
Simply a different hammer and chisel.

I agree that photography will be with us; however, only for a small minority - like the people in this forum. But, unfortunately, it seems that 98% of photos taken have degraded to selfies and picures of food about to be devoured! Mobile phone cameras have made pictures so commonplace that for many they aren't special anymore. 🙁

Hmmm . . . so where do the images generated by AI come from???
Photography maybe?
This is great for imagination, but it doesn't help me at all when I want to capture a beautiful sunrise/landscape/sunset scene that I want to remember as I saw it, not how I imagined it.

Cameras need not continue the War of Pixels, AI programs such as Topaz Photo AI clean up all the sins of fewer pixels, producing more and cleaner/sharper with colors that we think we saw, rather than colors that were.
We lived thru the film to digital, now we are in a transition to AI and special verbalized thought to digital image of the finished photo... we live in interesting times!!
Cell phone photography is a generational thing and a technological innovative approach to photography... we ain't seen nothing yet...

Remember those 12" "things" use to listen to music? That's right, the L.P. Now I'm not a user of them any more, but my college students are, and in the past 25 years teaching college students, every class has had a significant number who love L.P.s, and keep them alive?
Cameras, as in 35mm? They will never disappear. In 2040, there may be a "low population" of 35mm digital cameras, but ""what goes around, comes around"". And Canon, Nikon, Pentax, and the rest will survive. I just want them to hang on that long.

Images created entirely by AI are not the same as the change from film photography to digital photography. Photographic images are the result of light on a light sensitive material, be it film or a digital sensor. Using AI to process such images is still photography. Images created entirely on a computer may be art, but they are not photography.
