Interesting article, I hope he is correct, but it is only one mans opinion.

AI will replace photography? This is kind of confusing to me but I do not believe, like the author of the article does not believe, that AI will ever replace photography.
Like I know it now AI enhances many photographs. This is entirely subjective, I have used the AI Topaz uses in some of their software to enhance an occasional image. The AI that I am using is old technology but I find that most of the time I prefer the original version of my photograph, the image I made with the camera. Like all others here I enjoy using my cameras and I cannot foresee using AI instead of my images. Perhaps it is still too early to play around with predictions, technology advances fast and the way I see it AI will continue to develop as a means of enhancing an image, not as a substitute for a camera.

Along with the cameras, human brains will be in the trash. AI has already all but rendered the need for thinking along with cameras obsolete."
From the article... "Ok, I've had my bit of fun. All jokes aside, though, I'm writing this opinion piece specifically because for the last six months or so, I can't seem to get away from the incessant deluge of either panicked or gleeful declarations (depending on who is doing the declaring) that AI image generators have already all but rendered the need for photography obsolete."
All Jokes aside??? Freud said... "There is truth in humor"... correction "Freud once said “there is no humor only truth.” So demise of major cameras... of course Cell Phones and now AI verbal inspired image creations of dream world thoughts expressed to a program.
I watched the movie [again] "I Robot" and how "Now" it is... robots look like Tesla Bots. And AI is creating intelligent independent thinking bots... tho at this point contained with in a computer chip. Quantum Computers are multi times faster and more intelligent... there is concern within the tech community.
Today people ask Mr Google and the super compilation of information rather than remembering things and reasoning for them selves. Human down fall will cascade. Along with the cameras, human brains will be in the trash.

Yes, it was an interesting article. I've watched videos and could hardly tell it they were real however, they will have till wait till I'm dead and gone before they get my "shooting instruments".

He seems very optimistic, to my thinking.
AI has been around for about 15 minutes - exaggerating just a bit but it's certainly a very short time relatively - and has made HUGE strides. And in 3 years? 10 years? 100 years?
