My long time friend Andreas Jürgensen is asking the photographers opinion about the AI generated images and AI editing tools for photography. Please consider participating his survey at Surveymonkey (Click here).

Photography has changed a lot in recent years – especially through the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Today, AI tools can optimize images, edit them and, since a few months, even create completely new images that look deceptively real.
What do you think of this development? Do you feel fascination for the technical possibilities or do concerns and rejection prevail when you think about AI and photography?
Maybe you are afraid that it will affect the authenticity and creativity in photography. Or maybe you’re curious and open to new tech possibilities and see AI as an opportunity to be more creative.
In this survey, we would like to learn more about what you think about this topic and what questions and suggestions you have.

We are curious about your opinion!
Andreas Jürgensen

Inpainting and Extend Image, are two powerful new ways to edit your photos that will soon be available on Adobe Firefly. I took a couple of photos I shot with Sony A7rV and tried to modify them using Playground Ai which already contains those two features. Check out the video to see how it works!

Photoreview asked their readers to rank the reliability of their products. Sony had a very good result with close to 90% satisfaction. I a surprised to see Canon perform that bad!
